To get to class (and back again)! - OSU

I typically put very little thought into how I traverse to and from a place outside of traffic pile ups, how much gas it will take to reach my sought after destination and finally, how long until I can return home?  I've been tasked with stopping that habit for a time at least and really examining what is involved in my daily trek.  What do I pay attention to as I drive?  DO I even pay attention to anything visually that's not an obstacle from my getting to my destination?  

I had to stop and really think about those questions for a while.  I think, no, I know I am guilty of not stopping to smell the roses lately because I feel that I have so much to do and such little time to accomplish it all in that any detraction from my focus is a huge detriment to my long term goals.  Fortunately, I have had some real, down to earth wake up calls from people and places I value the opinions of very highly.  Taking a different look at how I do get around, I've made a map and part of its directions take you photographic journey from my home to The Ohio State University - Main campus and back.  

This should prove to be a very interesting take on how an every day activity can take on a completely different look and feel if one only takes the time to really see.
