I paid for the fuel and walked out my town car waiting for me by the pump.

I don't care what anyone says.

Driving will always be my choice over flying when it comes to cross-country travel.

There's just something about cruising on two-lane interstates through the badlands of the U.S. that I've always liked.

Maybe it was the freedom I felt with it. Just me, the car, and the open

road. With the windows down and the radio turned up, I was the happiest I could ever be.

And since I had to travel quite frequently for business trips and whatnot,

this had become a regular feeling for me.

I got in the car and started the engine, chills running over me as the VA growled to life.

I pulled out to the edge of the parking lot and stopped looking down the desolate road. You could see it disappear into the desert miles ahead,

almost as if it was going straight to the edge of the earth.

I was on the last leg of my return trip home to Las Vegas from a company conference in Seattle.

The whole drive there and back had been nothing short of perfection.

Clear skies, great music, warm weather, and of course the feeling of complete

isolation from the rest of the world. I had also stayed in cheap but rather nice roadside motels, a nice break from the congested and noisy

city life I was all too familiar with, but unfortunately I had to go back to.

It was mid afternoon now.
