And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
In the west there are wagon ruts still visible. When one knows where to look (research the preferred routes) and knows what to look for, it is amazing to see. Of course, many of the roads began as game trails, then dusty tracks, now asphalt carpets.
I remember when a grade on Hwy 395 was freshly paved. The grade is to the north of Mammoth and about a 7 miles descent into the Long Valley Caldera. Too bad I didn't have a skateboard.
Losing a whell while driving East Anglia in England, was a passenger along with 2 others and the the driver in a Mini Cooper doing 60mph. Saw the wheel drifting off to the left and the other passanger in the back seat thought it was a riot, the driver was white knuckled trying to stop the car.
#4 sure looks like the road out of Jerome, AZ. heading towards Prescott. Pulled off on those pull offs many times to look out over the Verde Valley. Such a beautiful sight. Another great FOR, thanks. jack

It's useful to have a motel and a liquor store in the same building.
