On the road again

Okay, my time at SXSW in Austin is over and my dad has driven up from Rockport, Texas, and today we begin the journey back to Fall River, Massachusetts...by car. Long haul. About three and a half days on the road. On the one hand it's a lot of time to spend with someone in a car, on the other hand there's something kind of meditative about getting behind the wheel and driving, staring down the road, watching America pass by.
