A Day in the Life, Part III
"I Da Ho, U Da Ho"

Sometimes you can drive across an entire state and not see much of it.


All it takes is a mixture of persistent storm clouds


Extreme fatigue


And a confused GPS unit that keeps telling you to abandon the highway at every possible exit.



But even under the worst of conditions, a little beauty is bound to shine through.



And everywhere in-between, you amuse yourself with unusual signs you pass along the way.


From the juvenile


And the unintended racism



To the fallen.



Before you know it, you're 380 miles from where you started, and you realize you'd had GPS set to "pedestrian" — and not "automobile" — all the while.

I am impressed that the GPS insisted that pedestrians should not be on the Interstate, but disappointed that it was willing to believe that a pedestrian could do 60 mph. Was Great White playing at the Spud Drive-In? Long way from Rhode Island.
