Traveling

At the end of the day, when the sun was slipping down past the edge of the world and stillness filled the cabin of the car, the driver yawned as he focused on the road ahead.  All day they had traveled driving across the desolate landscape headed for a new beginning.

The night slowly settled around the car and quiet conversation was engaged in.  They wouldn't make their destination that night and thoughts turned to stopping.

Up ahead a blue sign appeared advertising a Comfort Inn.  A quick consultation among the travelers.  The driver nodded agreement and left the interstate.
