Road trip tunes

Los Twangers - Back to Sonora - YouTube

Worries of work left far behind;

feel the dry wind in your hair.

Kid's in the backseat submerged in their games;

Joshua trees becon our names.

Smell that desert sage, fresh after the storm.

Crackling fire imagined tonight;

flames wisp and whip into mindless shapes.

Remember these moments afar .

I listen to a lot of metal, rock, blues and country. Not the depressing country either cuz that would make the drive take forever, also listen to loonnggg songs, driving will go by much faster.

I listen to podcasts or audiobooks on long drives. Podcasts because I like to learn something, audiobooks for some timeless classics, like "The Sorcerer's Stone" lol

Wanted to post a link to Foreigner's Rev on the Redline, but it had too many Chebbies in it.

Yea, Glen Campbell is definitely good talent.
