On The Road

This week's challenge, was "on the road".  I haven't been on the road much except for my commute back and forth to work and there just weren't any photo ops.  Instead, join me on the "roads" I always prefer.... 

It's that time of year, keep an eye out for leaf peepers.

If things get too crowded, head for the evergreens instead.

Wouldn't you know it, speed bumps even out here...
 
Hey, watch where you're going.  Keep your eyes on the road will ya?

Some of these road signs are so danged hard to read.

Any gnomes or fairies looking for a place to stay? Plenty of vacancies.  I guess the housing market is still down.

Detour.  Go left, right,left,left, up, backwards, left again...

Slow down, construction ahead.

Always, always keep a close watch out for crazy drivers.  This bozo was so intent on peeping his leaf, he nearly sideswiped me....

Best to just take a deep breath, stay calm and keep going though.  You don't want to incite any road-rage.

And remember, if things get too bad, it's best to just stop and smell the roses...or whatever these things are...
