“You’re going to have to find out where you want to go. And then you’ve got to start going there.
Immediately. You can’t afford to lose a minute.”

~JD Salinger, American Author

I am of the opinion that some people are born to wander back roads.

Maybe it’s the soul’s yearning for solitude and simplicity; or perhaps it’s just restlessness in clever disguise.

Or maybe, just maybe, a person’s wandering is the manifestation of their belief that all that they are and all that they want to be is still out there; somewhere.

Truth be told, I don’t think we’ll ever know what causes certain folks to roam the back roads of this world.

But one thing’s for sure; in the middle of nowhere, with nothing, they have everything.

Highway 92, just east of Merna, NE.
