Last week, I was in a major car accident on a snowy country road. Three other cars were involved. My car is a total loss. But I'm in one piece, and that's what matters.
This was everything I hate about cars. The dangerous driving. The costs. The fear.
Ironically, I've had this series of photos from my first trip across Canada open on my desktop for a few weeks now. I was waiting for the right moment to post them, a lull in the winter season maybe, certainly not a car crash.
They are everything I love about driving. Discovery. Freedom. Movement.
For several days now, I've been replaying the accident in my mind: the car that suddenly appeared in front of me and that I hit; and the cars coming from the opposite direction that crashed into me. And yet, I can't wait to get back on the road. Discovering new landscapes and the sensation of leaving it all behind. Strange emotions.
