This title is also just my imagination about the Arizonian desert that
is full of historical remains. Caravan, yes, caravan is the main
traditional vehicle that had been widely used by people eastcoast
to go westward searching a better living. Along with the fast development
of machinery industry, peoples, especially today, cannot use this
vehicle like it used to be no more. Today, there are many modern
ones that could move people more and more faster and economical.
This makes most of people just leave such vehicle behind and keep
driving the modern one. But, In this case it's wrong if we judge
modernity is the criminal and the old one becomes the victim.
Today, when the sun beam stinks every skin, a young man contrarily
riding a '52 Panhead amid the hottest desert somewhere in Arizona.
He looks like the man in New Mexico last month. Yes, that's right,
Al is in Arizona today. He's been riding his bike for hours. It
seems that the typical hot climate of Arizonanian desert doesn't
stop him to always capture Highway 66 remains. His eagle eyes seems
never stop scrutinizing his surroundings. Today, he feel so upset.
Tens of caravans was just left aside by its owner.
Today and yesterday, that two words are gonna be born everytime
at the same time. Both of them will be arguing so viciously each
other to strengthen each position in everyday's and evewhere's life.
As a responsible man, we need our wisdom to always treate both equally
without leaving alone one of them. It's gonna be so great and gorgeous
if we, people, always can do so. As a human being we have to always
move forward to build this life and face challenges, besides, we
have to always bring the spirit of struggling to live that always
been warcried by our predecessors. Yesterday, as fact, has been
the foundation of our life today and is gonna be our spirit to face
any challenges tommorrow.
Here, The Old Route 66 is not the victim of the new built four
lane highway system. The matter we should underline here, is how
to keep both two and four lane highway system and it's things living
together based on different functions and how to increase the apreciation
of people to it's historical role. That's gonna be always enriching
America. |
