Easy Rider - the tropical version

Tropical Easy Rider - Captured at Port Canaveral, FL

Easy Rider
is a 1969 American road movie written by Peter Fonda, Dennis Hopper, and Terry Southern, produced by Fonda and directed by Hopper. It tells the story of two bikers (played by Fonda and Hopper) who travel through the American Southwest and South with the aim of achieving freedom. The success of Easy Rider helped spark the New Hollywood phase of filmmaking during the late sixties. The film was added to the Library of Congress National Registry in 1998.
A landmark counterculture film,^[2] and a "touchstone for a generation" that "captured the national imagination",^[3] Easy Rider explores the societal landscape, issues, and tensions in the United States during the 1960s, such as the rise and fall of the hippie movement, drug use, and communal lifestyle. Easy Rider is famous for its use of real drugs in its portrayal of marijuana and other substances. Read more here...

Not for car lovers only....

Drive-in banks were established so most of the cars today could see their real owners.

Hi my friends,

 

Thank you so much for all the wonderful comments to my "Wordless Sunday" post yesterday. I'm happy you liked the picture - thanks also to all my facebook friends and fans for commenting over there!

 

I have photographed this car (picture above) on an auction in Branson, Missouri. I don't know what kind of model it was, I just loved the detail and the elegance. And I love the quote! :)

Wishing you a wonderful start in this new week - hopefully filled with only good surprises!

~Susanne

Leaving Tucson,AZ to Las Cruces in New Mexico

We've enjoyed our stay in Tucson (for two days) very much - but we had to go on and we were on the road traveling back on I-10 to East

I made many, many photos again, of course, how can I not do that...LOL... :)
The landscapes are just to beautiful!
(btw, all the photos are made out of my window, while driving)

The trees, the colors, the mountains - everything is in harmony!

The pistachio trees in the warm valley are growing fast

Crossing back the State line from Arizona to New Mexico

In this part of New Mexico we had no dust storms, but I will show you in my next post some pictures with stormy conditions close to Albuquerque.
It was not nice to drive trough!

Have you ever seen snake eggs, a snake head or a real Rattelsnake...? yuck, I don't want to see that "snake stuff" at all... :))

Pretty landscape again...

Pastoral scene...

The way to Palomas, Mexico - the Border Patrol was very active again in this region

Wild horses...

Arriving in a warm evening sun light in Las Cruces, NM and we had a nice RV place to stay


Las Cruces NM
Nestled in the fertile Mesilla Valley between the majestic Organ Mountains and the meandering Rio Grande, Las Cruces, New Mexico is quickly becoming a popular southwestern destination

Hi my friends,

Thank you all for all your nice comments! Since we are on the road again it's hard to get good connections again...the same old song, right??? :))

Just now we are already back in Texas, up in the panhandle. We plan to stay here 2 nights and tomorrow I will have more time to post about the last two days - stay tuned and see you there! :)

Susanne and David
