Homeward Bound

I knew it would be hard to get a picture today. My day was jam packed with an activity that does not lend itself well to photography...driving. I've been away from home a long time, so I just wanted to get there. I was not in the mood to search for beauty in something on the side of the road.

As I was driving and jamming to some Taylor Swift (I was sans husband on this drive--a consequence of buying a new car while on vacation--not all bad) I noticed what a beautiful day it was. The sun was going down, the sky was the perfect shade of blue, the road ahead of me was gleaming. I knew it was the perfect opportunity to get my picture for today. I pulled over, dug my camera out of the back seat, and that's when I snapped...

Just me and the road. I have to admit it...I'm kind of in love with this picture.
