On the road to nowhere






We're on a road to nowhere
Come on inside

Takin' that ride to nowhere

We'll take that ride

I'm feelin' okay this mornin' And you know,
We're on the road to paradise

Here we go, here we go

CHORUS

Maybe you wonder where you are

I don't care

Here is where time is on our side

Take you there...
take you there

We're on a road to nowhere

We're on a road to nowhere

We're on a road to nowhere

There's a city in my mind

Come along and take that ride

and it's all right, baby, it's all right

And it's very far away
But it's growing day by day
And it's all right, baby, it's all right
They can tell you what to do
But they'll make a fool of you

And it's all right,
baby, it's all right
We're on a road to nowhere
.....(Talkin Heads On the road to nowhere)

This summer Gail and I have been taking 1 tank rides more. Not so much about the cost of gas these days, although it is relevant. It is more about going places, stopping often to take pictures or just "smell the roses" a bit.

This weekend we were going to ride the raods around Heath Mass. Our intention was to head in the general area and get a room when we saw a place we'd like to stay at. One little problem. You guessed it. No rooms! Apparantly the North Adams/Williamstown area is booked solid when Tanglewood is performing. Oops. We decided to head up the road a bit to Bennington to see if anything was avaialable. We found a tolerable room for ok money right downtown. The roads were terrific, especially Rt 116. We stopped often took pictures and literally "smelled the roses" It was a real nice time.

Shelburne Falls: Is this the last phone booth anywhere? Maybe!
