The Road Ahead
« on: May 02, 2010, 12:15:10 AM »
Whether the road is "less traveled" or "heavily traveled", looking ahead is fun ... most of the time.  These are a few "road shots" I've taken; since I'm sharing different ones with different groups/boards, I may add more later....










Anyone else have shots of "the road ahead"?

Here are 2 of mine. One is near Dingle at the Dingle peninsula, Ireland. The second is a road just of the Ring of Kerry, near Ladies View in Co. Kerry, Ireland.

Yes, we happened to stumble upon it on the way to Brugge. It's a very nice little ancient town!

Awesome!

One of those ... the one labeled "Peru" ... looks like it is taken along US Route 66 in Arizona.....

That's cool, guido.

Just goes to show how some areas/places have "twins" of sorts....very interesting, indeed.
