southern tour


Went south of the Mason Dixon Line on a road trip. As soon as I took my seat on the plane, a little 82 year old, sitting in my row, greeted me with her life story. Once the plane ascended through the clouds she ignored me in favor of the window. Her profile was fascinating.



We drove down i95, which has to be one of the ugliest stretches of road I've ever been on. Usually on long drives I make sketches of the scenery, but there was no scenery, just a straight 6+ lane highway with minimal trees, minimal hills, minimal curves, no bridges, no farms, no lakes, rivers, or marshes. So I drew the driver instead.

The tour of the lake.

Mid trip, I thought the month had changed to July, I don't know why...



On the return trip we decided to be cultural and stop for a play. "Lend Me A Tenor" was hilarious. Above are my Row N impressions of the cast.



The hunger pains were so intense, that I couldn't lift my pencil before we arrived at a Waffle House outside of Richmond.



Flying home.
