K2 Keeping Eye On Me Having Brunch In Restaurant Upstairs - IMRAN™
Sunday brunch at the upstairs retractable-roof section of a restaurant on Long Island, New York, and K2 is keeping an eye on me. He wants to ensure I bring his and Kennedy’s share. Kennedy is on the other side of the car seat.

On The Road Of Life, Keep Driving. (Road Trip NY-MA Fall Foliage 10 Years Ago) - IMRAN™
On the road of life, the seasons will change on you with predictable unpredictability. But do not lose sight of your destination. Remember that even after a hard fall you can always spring back. Just don't forget, time flies. See how quickly ten years flew by as this story illustrates.
After the ferry ride (www.flickr.com/photos/imrananwar/50495571767/ ) from Orient Point in New York to New London in Connecticut, I got driving the rest of the way to my meetings in the Boston, Massachusetts area. A lot of trees were still green, but it had been a dry and very windy autumn so many of the trees were already stripped bare, although it was the third week in October and I was not that far North on the eastern seaboard. I decided it was best to pull over and just do a short recording to take in the scenery. Ten years later I just set it to some music to share with you.
Take a deep breath, don't worry about the starkness you may feel surrounding you. Get back in the driving seat. It is your life after all. Get a grip, head up, eyes forward, a quick look over your shoulder to avoid unneeded risk, but do not get hung up looking backward. You're not going that way.
Get in gear, and off you go. Better places than the best destination you could have imagined are waiting for you. See you on the road soon.

Sorry, I do not know the source of this awesome picture that I got in email. It is NOT my image but I fully agree with the sentiment.

Car / Park - IMRAN™
There are some really pretty roadside spots in the Tampa area which look more like a country road drive than a patch of land in Brandon next to Silver Spoon, the Pakistani food place I love eating at. I like to pull into the shady area. After lunch, as I walked my German Shepherd, Kennedy, to explore the trees in the area, I loved how the beautiful trees and shades framed my other German beast, the Benz S65.

2nd Long Break 2nd Night 2nd Leg Of 2nd K9 Road Trip - IMRAN™
Since both my preferred 2-large-dogs-welcome hotels in my preferred midway point on my road trip, in Raleigh, NC were sold out I had to stop overnight in Lumberton NC instead. It was a lovely comfortable stay as you saw in my two dogs’ previous two pictures, although the town was not my first choice.
It also meant the second day went from an estimated 10-hours driving day to a 12-hours driving — plus of course also meaning extra time for extra journey breaks — type of day.
At this 2nd longer stop, in Maryland after one in Virginia, I pulled over at the farthest point of the huge rest area. It gave both dogs a chance to walk and even play wrestle for a while in clean green grass. That also meant they both were ready to nap while I “relaxed” by catching up on emails and messages.
We spent a full hour here and I got them out for three separate walks and food in the surprisingly nippy 50s Fahrenheit temps of the northeast. Northern autumns are like Florida winters.
Then it was time to get on the nearly 5-6 hours final dog leg of the journey. K2 slept and Kennedy as always sat upright most of the trip. He was literally savoring all the visual and other inputs he was receiving despite it being night time.
