Car Travel

After spending the day in the car and traveling over 600 miles, I am grateful for the combustion engine. It is fun to fantasize about cattle or elephants pulling a wagon and I love horse drawn carriages, but for sheer convenience and speed the only thing that beats a car is a plane and that only in speed. Planes generally are not easy to park, fuel is not available every mile and the risk of a breakdown or a collision are only less if you are a practiced pilot.
