The Beauty Of Music On The Road

So I begin my two day trek from British Columbia to Manitoba. Dead Meadow the best music to listen to as the mysterious mountains loom around you.

When I hit the rolling hills of Alberta, I felt like gliding over the lush green hills while listening to Weird Owl. I had forgotten what it was like watching the sunset on the prairies. The sky red as far as the eye could see.

By the time I arrived in Saskatchewan. Led Zeppelin really spoke to me, as I spent my time watching the hills disappear behind me, waiting for trees and guessing what songs where playing on the satellite radio station "Classic Vinyl".

Manitoba was me, the road and The Beatles. All wheat fields and forests, trees with yellow leafs just waiting for the wind to take them and blow them away.

I enjoyed the road.
My 5 On The Road Songs:
Dead Meadow- Eyeless Gaze/ Don't Tell The Riverman
Weird Owl- Like 100,000 Sunsets
The Warlocks- Moving Mountains
Led Zeppelin- Going To California
The Beatles- I'm Only Sleeping
