Whew, what a trip! I do not know where this bridge was, lol. The beginning of our trip took us south through Chicago, into Indiana, East through Indianapolis, into West Virginia and Virginia and North Carolina - where Dennis had to visit a plant - down through South Carolina (barely sliding through before that huge snowstorm!) and into Georgia (Savannah), then finally Florida, Jacksonville, Daytona Beach, through Orlando, to the Everglades, down to Key West, back up along the Gulf Coast to Homosassa Springs, then back home through Atlanta Georgia, Chattanooga Tennessee, through Kentucky and back up through the longest part of Illinois. Boy, I got tired just typing that.
It was a very long trip, with many miles of various terrains flying past the window, but we managed to get out a few times and check things out. I'm feeling a wee bit overwhelmed with nearly 3000 photos to go through! I have gotten the car unloaded, things put away, laundry completed, oh! And the nice surprise when we got home to temperatures in the 20s was that the furnace in our place had crapped out while we were gone and the temp in the house was 43 degrees! Brrrr! We spent the evening trying to figure it out, finally gave up and called the repair man and yesterday morning the heat was back on and I now feel like I can tackle the photos.
However, I might suggest that you do not choose to switch from a PC to a Mac right before a huge trip - the Mac stayed home for the trip, safe at home, and here I sit trying to get my mind out of PC mode and into the simplicity of Mac mode and finding a groove for keeping my photos organized where I can actually find them and know which ones I've shared - - - and yeah, I'm just a wee bit overwhelmed. But I'm happy to report that I'm pretty excited about some of the photos! I can't wait to wade through them and relive the moments of their taking and share like crazy!
So yeah, I'm not sure which state this bridge was in, but I think it was in the first day or two of the trip, snapped through the windshield while going 70 mph with the crappy little point and shoot, and I can't decide which way I like best. I hope it transfers to you the feeling of adventure I felt. :0)
Sounds like an amazing amount of driving! When I used to live in Chicago with my family, we took a summer trip see my grandmother outside Atlanta, GA every year. Believe, me I'm pretty sure I know some of those stretches of road you mention all too well myself. ;)
ReplyDeleteGood luck with the mac to pc thing. I'm not sure I could make the switch this late in the game. LOL
WOW!! That is some road trip you made! I´m not sure if I could do so much driving without getting stir crazy. But I can´t wait to see more pics from your trip. Sounds fascinating!
ReplyDeleteGlad you´re back.
The sky looks pretty intimidating either way! That was some adventure you came home to. Anxiously looking forward to more photos!
ReplyDeleteWow, that was some road trip! Even with a point and shoot you take great pictures. :)
ReplyDeleteI love the bridge. Those are amazing shots at that speed! Whew.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful bridge shot - I hope you weren't the driver!
ReplyDeleteI prefer the bottom shot, but the top one is nice too.
That is some trip! I'm not surprised this bridge is just a blur!
ReplyDeleteGreat trip and captures.
ReplyDeleteI like to photograph bridges.
Regards.
Lisa!!! I know that bridge! I know that very same bridge!!! I photographed it several times! It is in Jacksonville!! You guys took many of the same roads we did on our maiden RV voyage!! So glad you got to see all that. Key West is one of my most favorite places on earth. We used to go every year! After we bought the cottage and obtained our bichons...no more travel...unless by RV!
ReplyDeleteGreat photos! You just have the knack for it, even at 70mph!
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see more photos from your trip!
Great bridge photo!! Love the angle you captured it at.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a great trip. If I had known you were going to so many places where I have lived (Indiana, NC, Georgia, and Florida), I would have given you some tips on places to see.
ReplyDeletethat's a lot of miles...but i bet it was worth it.
ReplyDeletei admire you. you sure know how to travel.
This does sound like quite the journey, Lisa!! And....I was getting tired just reading all the place you went through - wow!!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you're home safe and sound and yes, I AM looking forward to see your pictures!!! I love that bridge, it reminds me of the Normandy bridge. I snapped my pictures through the windshield as well!
ReplyDeletethat's a lot of driving. I hate I couldn't get free to meet you while you were here, so close! Next time, hopefully when you've got a bit more time to spend. We got stuff here.
