Sunrise on Lake Hartwell

I’ve been taking a little swim every morning here on Lake Hartwell, and occasionally take out my daugther’s Canon D10 camera [amazon.com] [my review on ThisWeekInPhoto]. If I time it just right, I’m floating in the lake surrounded by mists and watching the sun come up.

Not a shabby way to start the day.

This is the end. Beautiful Friend. 

What an amazing journey it was. A little recap…

I left Caprinteria, California the evening of Saturday, Aug 07, 2010 to drive across the country. Final destination: Anderson, South Carolina. I wanted to get across Los Angeles, spend the night in Joshua Tree, and begin the journey fresh from there on Sunday morning.

California to Arizona to New Mexico to Texas to Oklahoma to Arkansas to Tennessee to North Carolina to Georgia to South Carolina. Ten nights on the road, staying in Joshua Tree, Phoenix, White Sands, Santa Fe, Santa Rosa, Oklahoma City, Little Rock, and Nashville. With all the detours, 3,000 miles driven.

Tail of the Dragon

My final day of driving…

From Nasvhille, TN, through North Carolina, Georgia for a touch, and finally ending in Anderson, South Carolina. And the road down… is the Tail of the Dragon.

Nashville, TN — Loveless Cafe, Neon and… the Parthenon?!

I stayed the night with a high school buddy in Nashville, and after a burger at Rotier’s we did a little night sight seeing. Imagine my surprise when we pulled up in front of the Parthenon.

Memphis, Elvis, and Dr. King

I’ve never been to Memphis before, and I can already tell that I need to come back. I even tried to convince my buddy in Nashville to get his ass down to Memphis instead of me heading up there, but it wasn’t an option. So I had a couple of hours at high noon to wander the town in the blazing heat, snap some photos and find a good local BBQ.
