Traveling down America's highways is always an enjoyable experience for me. We are taking care of business for the Foundation this week, and it requires a trip across several States. Nothing like watching the foliage of deep greens change to the bright shades of Fall, as we roll past.
The country roads of the deep South have a certain charm to them in a RV. The view is better because we are higher, and the smooth ride of a big rig is second to none. Not to mention being able to cook and then enjoying a hot meal in the privacy of our own home away from home.
There are always the truck stops along the way that we access in such a large RV. And you never know what kind of sights await at each stop. There are the usual truck repairs happening, that are self explanatory. And then there are these.....
It always is surprising to see the door open on a semi truck and a lady driver get out. I waited till she walked away from her truck, as to not raise suspicions that I was taking her picture! Is she a single mom, trying her best to take care of her family?
Then there are the unique sights such as pictures that people hand paint on the sides of their vehicles. Wonder what the story is behind this one. There must be a special one.
Now surely there is a logical reason for why someone would buy things - and some of it looks like food still wrapped in this sack, then walk off and leave it here! What is going on with this person?? Did they forget where they left their lunch?
Now the story of why this was done, I'm not sure, but I can reasonably assume the ending. The General Manager surely was upset with whoever did this to his landscaping out front of the Truck Stop. Trimming is one thing, but shearing off all of the shrubs is quite another. Why???
Rolling mile after mile watching the deeply dug grooves in the highway, makes me wonder. Did the person just have their radio on so loud they could not hear the noise happening under their vehicle. Or did no one point out to the driver, 'hey dude you are dragging half your motor behind you'!
Funny how God's creation remains stable and steady - the same peaceful scenes to feel serene in, while man's seems to create all sorts of scenarios that create questions, opinions and yes more work. Interesting!
