One Of Those Drives To Work

First off let me say that I hate driving in rush hour traffic so I usually don't. But this morning was one of those days when I didn't have a choice. What is it about people which makes them think they can drive 80 miles per hour with only two car lengths separating their car from the car in front of them. And heaven help you if you get in their way - no matter which lane you are in.

However this morning wasn't so bad after all. I turned on my XM radio to Deep Tracks and got in one of those grooves that I wished could go on and on. First it was Delaney and Bonnie with a cut from their Home album - Just Plain Beautiful. Next came Traffic with You Can All Join In. Then it was Boz Scaggs with a really Bluesy cut. All of this was topped off by an Electric Flag cut.

Yea I know it doesn't sound like much but for a few minutes there was no traffic (no pun intended), I was 25 years old again and the day was just plain beautiful. I actually hated getting to work and having to get out of my truck. I think I could have stayed there for hours.
