Tuesday's with Eli - Roadtrips

I have always loved road trips.  For one thing I do some of my best thinking on the road. All the distractions of the "day to day life" are taken away when you only have one simple task to do...Drive. Because I had dated Leslie for 3 years long distance, I got pretty used to long drives. I really only need a couple things to make me happy on a road trip: Plain sunflower seeds, bottle water, possibly a Rockstar Energy drink, and if it's a really long drive... an audio book. These simple things make all the difference to me if I'm driving by myself. However, if I have a driving partner, that is something else. This weekend Leslie and I took a roadtrip to Nashville, Tennessee, her hometown. We we going there for her sister's birthday dinner at her grandparent' house. The weather was really nice the whole weekend, just a bit chilly, but made for a super pretty drive most the way. I was major excited to listen to my new audiobook "Never Eat Alone" by Keith Ferrazzi, and the 11 hour drive was a perfect fit. I'm glad Leslie didn't mind either. As long as the narrator has a non-annoying voice we're good, haha. It was a good book, I definitely recommend it to anyone wanting to get a little better at networking, and not in an artificial way, but in a genuine making friends and lasting connections kinda way. My friend Geoff Duncan recommended it to me, and I'm sure glad he did. Now I say pay it forward! Here's a quick little photos Leslie grabbed on the drive. Have a great week!
