UM Roadtrip
Clinch an interstate here,
clinch an interstate there...
The time came to enter the world
of college in August 2004, and very fortunately, I was able to share my
experience at the University of Miami with my car. So we drove from
Cleveland Heights all the way to Coral Gables. This was momentous for a
variety of reasons: I clinched all of I-77. And I clinched I-95 in
Florida, too. College, what's that? The picture you see above is of
my room, which is a little more bare now that my roommate decided to work his
evil on other people. There is only a smattering of pics here, so enjoy
what you can.
I-77
SB and I-64 EB, on the West Virginia Turnpike south of the state capital of
Charleston. This road may have been dangerous before, but I wanna see
what it was like with the suicide lanes. |
At
least the turnpike has retained the mountainous beauty of the state. |
Sometimes
that speed limit of 60 mph is a little hair-raising. |
Still
in West Virginia, but about to enter Virginia after this tunnel on I-77 SB. |
The
tunnel. |
Wow,
Virginia is pretty! |
Another
tunnel on I-77 South. |
Wow,
we're going in two directions at once on four different roads! |
This
is what those four roads look like in southwestern Virginia. |
Mountain. |
As
soon as we cross into North Carolina, I-74 appears out of nowhere. The
southern part of I-77 in VA is quite scenic, although not marked as such on
the maps. |
I
almost feel like I'm home again... I-74 shouldn't be here in my
opinion. |
I-74
and I-77 split in northern North Carolina. |
Charlotte,
NC. There was a large backup on the other side of the road and I don't
know why. |
That's all the pictures I felt like taking of this
trip. I thought I wasn't going to have a website when I was driving down
here, but it turned out that it works just fine. The rest of the ride
wasn't so interesting anyway.
