There are some songs that are just meant for the road. This here Roadside Graves tune is one of them.
It’s the perfect time of year to be hittin’ the road, too. A fine time to be starting out East and heading West. You can chase Fall the whole way across. You can travel through orchards bursting with apples while you dream about the ferns and moss that are waiting for you on another shore.
You can still roll down your window, too, and feel the sun on your face as it makes its last great show for a good long while. You can tap the wheel, throw back your head and sing loud, like a dang fool.
You really could, you know.

I shall do just that then…a wee road trip before the new job Hell hits.

Did someone say “road trip”…I’m in!!
Nothing like the freedom of a road trip…thanks for the tune, tara. I heard a lot of Bob Dylan influence in that song and loved your poetic intro to the song.
