This country still has a lot of unspoiled natural beauty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I think when you live close to a big city, you forget this and so a road trip is an excellent way to remind yourself of this truth. On this trip I did not travel the whole country, but just a part and since I was in the east, it was a bit of a realization. I&#8217;ve traveled in the west. Anyone driving across Texas, for example, will tell you there is a lot of open space. I didn&#8217;t fully understand that there is still unpopulated areas, or low populated areas, in the east.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When you go from Ohio to New England, and back, you must drive a long way either through Pennsylvania or New York state. (You have to go through both but depending on which route you go a long way through one or the other) Those are large states! On the way home we drove through New York headed to Erie, PA. The mountains are so green and beautiful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cindyswriting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/overlook-VT-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5023\" width=\"508\" height=\"677\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cindyswriting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/overlook-VT-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cindyswriting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/overlook-VT-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/cindyswriting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/overlook-VT-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/cindyswriting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/overlook-VT-1536x2048.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/cindyswriting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/overlook-VT-300x400.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cindyswriting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/overlook-VT-850x1133.jpg 850w, https:\/\/cindyswriting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/overlook-VT-scaled.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 508px) 100vw, 508px\" \/><figcaption>This is actually in Vermont, but indicative of unspoiled beauty.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/cindyswriting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/on-the-road-church-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cindyswriting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/on-the-road-church-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cindyswriting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/on-the-road-church-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/cindyswriting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/on-the-road-church-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/cindyswriting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/on-the-road-church-1536x2048.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/cindyswriting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/on-the-road-church-300x400.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cindyswriting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/on-the-road-church-850x1133.jpg 850w, https:\/\/cindyswriting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/on-the-road-church-scaled.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cindyswriting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/on-the-road-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5025\" width=\"659\" height=\"494\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cindyswriting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/on-the-road-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cindyswriting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/on-the-road-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cindyswriting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/on-the-road-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cindyswriting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/on-the-road-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/cindyswriting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/on-the-road-2048x1536.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/cindyswriting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/on-the-road-850x638.jpg 850w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 659px) 100vw, 659px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>\u201cThe best remedy for those who are afraid, lonely or unhappy is to go outside, somewhere where they can be quite alone with the heavens,\u00a0nature and God.
