RE: Alcan Highway Adventure Day 2: Wake Up and Drive

What a stunning view you bestowed upon us. It is still Saturday here sadly..I enjoyed every bit of my reading and love this part

The pointless deaths of so many animals. I myself partake in such mass murders when I hit the road. So many flies, butter, dragon, gone in an instant as I whiz down the highway in an attempt to better myself by fulfilling my dreams. I think, too, about how roadkill feeds scavengers and predators. Feeds ravens, crows, foxes, bears, vultures. Later in the day when I stop at a rest area I will also see that the dead insect bodies smeared across my sideview mirror provide nourishment for a hornet. It doesn't make me feel any better about humankind's impact on nature, but it does provide some reassurance that everything does get recycled one way or another. Earth takes care of shit, she does.

We all partake in such a mess but still, nature has to take place. Good luck to you and have a beautiful day.
