My daughter had just obtained her driver license and I let her drive home from a soccer tournament so she could get some freeway time. I took the opportunity to use my camera while driving, and got this shot while going down I-5 near Stockton. The human occupant was smiling as I took the shot, obviously pleased that her copilot caught my eye. It's not a particularly good technical photo, but I thought it fit the travel theme pretty well, and title (from the bumper sticker) seemed apropos. Glad you enjoyed it.
