Quoting TUNisia (Reply 9): driving out into the middle of nowhere just to hear abosoultely nothing and seeing nobody.
Definetly agree there TUN. Nicer then dealing with boneheads in city traffic.
*Driving in Yosemite National Park. The colour of its energy is just amazing!
*People who use their turn signals
*Composing music
*The feeling of acceleration. I get a HUGE grin across my face when driving a very torquey car, or the first part of take off when you get pushed back in your seat.
*The Ocean. It can calm me down in a heartbeat if Im feeling stressed out at all. A nice drive along the beach, or go and sit by the beach.
