American roads
In Ohio I spent many hours driving on US Route 23. In recently visiting Michigan I saw deer and a turtle, then passed the 45th parallel, equidistant from the equator and the pole, and further traveled at the north extent of route 23. In Ohio I had previously wondered what lay further north on it and now I have seen its far end for myself.
I would quite like to write a travel series wherein I traverse some of these longer routes in the US taking photographs, trying diners, collecting anecdotes and suchlike, probably planned to veer south in the winter and north in the summer. Even better would be also renting or swapping cars and reviewing those as I go. That doesn't seem to be a remunerative career that is easy to break into but I nonetheless note its abstract appeal.
In being flown into Newark I got a good view of Manhattan in the evening as we passed alongside: alternate straight streets showed the red taillights or white headlamps of the vehicles along them suggesting an alternating one-way system. I hadn't especially noticed this as a pedestrian or even using the crosstown buses. I recalled that I have yet to visit Central Park.
