On the Road

There are lots of photographs out on the road.


Over the next couple posts, I'm going to share some of the photographs that I shot during a recent road trip with my brother, from Seattle to Bloomington, Indiana. On the trip, we drove through Washington, Idaho, Montana, Wyoming, South Dakota, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Illinois, ending in Indiana.


Invariably on road trips, I find myself wondering about the content, character, and destiny of this country.  I will rely on the observations of better writers than I to articulate the complexity of America.


"As one digs deeper into the national character of the Americans, one sees that they have sought the value of everything in this world only in the answer to this single question: how much money will it bring in?" Alexis de Tocqueville(1805-1859), French Historian, author of Democracy in America.
