A good roadtripping soundtrack consists mostly of the radio on scan until it stops on something magical. Green Day, Sublime, Wallflowers, Cranberries, Gin Blossoms, Shakira, Uncle Kracker, Pearl Jam, Nelly, Smashing Pumpkins… Yeah, I’m a 90’s girl all the way. And as if music nostalgia wasn’t enough, the scenery really topped it off for me. Don’t get me wrong here, I like living at the beach, but the greenery driving through Rockland County and Orange County NY does something for my soul. And for a girl who was desperate to escape her hometown, I got all the feels, all the while gazing out the window, mesmerized. I dig when that happens, that moment that you are fully aware of how small you are and how big God is. Awesome. There is a great big world out there to explore. Wishing you all a happy and safe Memorial Day.
