When I saw this image, it made me homesick for up north. Actually... it brought back memories of Connecticut... and although Connecticut is beautiful... I do not consider it home. I consider New Hampshire home and thoughts of Connecticut lead to thoughts of home. A long way around but it got me there. :)
Anyway... this image reminded me... for whatever reason... of driving down the roads of Connecticut under canopies of trees. Being from Texas... this was a brand new world for me. I. LOVED. IT! At the same time... when we lived in New Hampshire... my children were teenagers learning to drive and getting their driver's licences right along with all their friends. It seemed almost every week for about two years... someone was getting their driver's license and the first thing they all wanted to do was hop into a car and go riding with their friends! What a nightmare! lol Especially during the winter months! Yikes!
