Above is a picture of my commute in to work today. I think I saw one car on this little 15 minute trip. No traffic signals,  no Starbucks and no McDonalds, I also usually see a few deer along this route but it is deer season, so I believe they were being very discreet. The reason I like where I live is trips like this allow me to keep my sanity.

As compared to picture below from Atlanta last Friday afternoon. This enjoyable little drive home took me over three hours as compared to the hour and a half it took to get there. But I did get to watch someone on the AM commute pull the rare stunt of cutting across six lanes of traffic to barely make their exit, Bravo brave sir!
