    I don't know. Maybe I'll hop on the Interstate late afternoon and spend two hours watching the sun set as I creep forward toward NH. And after finally hitting the EZPASS at the York exit, I Zoom across the bridge so I can wait for the line in NH at the 101 intersection - thank goodness for that EZPASS. Finally past that NH toll, I can speed up enough that my speedometer actually moves the dial. Freak I'm driving right into the sun. I quickly feel around for my sunglasses to keep my retinas from burning out - ouch! Yuck! What is that gunk under the seat? Oh man. What did I spill? Crap. should I pull over? Nope. Gotta stay in my lane in case it speeds up. - Nope, I WON'T BE TRAVELING, I WILL STAY LOCAL.
