Almost everywhere I go, there are windmills. The one below was at an I-40 rest stop in east Texas. I didn't realize it at the time, but in addition to following Route 66, I was also traveling part of the

here nor there, and decided to turn around and go back before I got stuck or lost. Following the
original dirt track suddenly seemed less important than it did a few
minutes earlier. |
