Awe - Blue Highways

The first travel narrative I ever remember reading was William Least Heat Moon's Blue Highways. I always think of it when I start planning a road trip. CNN.Com has an interview with the author, who has just completed a new journey to many of the same places in a book entitled "Roads to Quoz" (which I haven't read yet - waiting for the paperback version to come out!) His insights on changes in the American landscape and in Americans themselves reflect the changes I think we all have seen but maybe not formulated in as concise a manner. Worth a quick read. http://www.cnn.com/2009/TRAVEL/11/18/bluehighways/index.html
