Adding to my interests are many historic highways traveled by people with
hopes, dreams, failures, thoughts, etc. Some of these include: Route 66
(from Chicago to Santa Monica), Route 50 "The Lincoln Highway" and "The
Loneliest Road", Route 40 (the first interstate highway in America) and
highways less known, such as the Old Plank Road in the California Desert.
One of my philosophies: A road has many stories to tell; it can think, feel, and remember. One thing it can't do is talk; therefore, people must use their imaginations to make it talk. The weary travelers, hitchhikers, gas station owners, and construction workers are a part of the stories of the "ribbons of highway" in America, "land of many roads".
