Inspired by the "Road Surfaces" thread, if anybody has pictures taken while driving, post them here. I think it would be cool to get a taste of what it's like to drive in all the various places UCP members live.
You'll have to forgive the low resolution on mine, they're all taken with the old 640x480 digicam I keep in my car.
1) Interstate 66, Northern Virginia, approaching the Beltway
2) The original Main Street of America, U.S. Route 1, north of Raleigh, NC. Route 1 runs from north-south along the East Coast from Maine to Key West
3) Interstate 66, Northern Virginia, just outside Washington, D.C.
4) Downtown Richmond, Virginia, seen from northbound Interstate 95

Sesquipedalian -- a really cool word. It means long-winded, polysyllabic, or verbose. See the word describes itself...isn't that neat?
