Eagle Nest, New Mexico, 2012. “People like to drive because driving is actually and symbolically an almost perfect mechanism for escape…there is probably no human being who does not have troubles, real or imagined, from which he at times feels the need to flee.” George R. Stewart.

F100 needs a home
From Alex Emond, our south Saskatchewan (and Banff) correspondent. "The house with all the trucks around it is on the edge of Swift Current. Obviously the guy has a problem with old pickup trucks. Usually some of them have "For Sale" signs on them....I might have to meet the dude and ask if I can take more pictures. These are only the trucks that are visible from the far end of his driveway. Who knows what lurks in the back yard? Or in the shop ? I'll bet he's got trucks in the basement."
