Where Did They Come From; Where Are They Going?

We've been traveling all day and the traffic is heavy. The license plates we've seen are from various places like Minnesota,  Ontario, Indiana, Kentucky, Michigan, Tennessee, Florida, Georgia, South Carolina and Arkansas. The assortment of vehicles complements the variety as well. They are large and small with most somewhere between. Some had 6 or 7 inches of snow riding on the top. Many were so encased with a brown or gray layer of dirt from the roadway it was hard to tell what color they were, while just a few were sparkling clean. Drivers were dancing to the beat of the music, in deep conversation with the passenger or gripping the steering wheel with both hands devoting complete attention to the traffic around them.

As I ride along this highway listening to Christmas music or news or the oldies, I've been watching the folks pass by, wondering where they've been and where they could be going.

The sun is setting, traffic is thinning and we have 50 miles to go before we stop for today. God blessed us with a good trip today! Tomorrow we'll be travelling again, I wonder what sights we'll see then?
