There are no traffic jams along the extra mile.

No one means all he says, and yet very few say all they mean, for words are slippery and thought is viscous.

As a nation, be began by declaring that 'all men are created equal'.... When the Know-Nothings get control, it will read 'all men are created equal, except negroes, and foreigners, and Catholics.' When it comes to this I should prefer emigrating to some country where they make no pretense of loving liberty &mdash to Russia, for instance, where despotism can be taken pure, and without the base alloy of hypocrisy.

Day 5 is raw slopes and clean air above the #PikesPeakHighway in #PikesPeak #ColoradoSprings 🏔️
Rock textures, dark pines, and a strip of blue water that shows up when you least expect it.
I chased the contrast between soft color and hard stone until the frame felt sharp and quiet.#LandscapePhotography #NaturePhotography #RockyMountains #AutumnColors #WesternUSA #HighAltitude #NatureDetails #Amir2000NLStory #CanonR5MarkII #AMIR2000NLPhotography 3/3

Day 4 is the higher mood, thinner trees and heavier sky as you keep climbing the #PikesPeakHighway ☁️ in #PikesPeak #ColoradoSprings
Cloud shadows slide across the slopes, then the light breaks through just enough to shape the ridgeline.

Day 3 is wide open air, ridges stacking toward the horizon as you climb the #PikesPeakHighway in #PikesPeak #ColoradoSprings 🏔️
I framed for depth and waited for the one moment the distance stopped being background.

#Rivian will race the new 1,025hp Ascend Quad Max #R1T at #PikesPeak this week
The Pike’s Peak International Hill Climb is one of the longest-running races in the world, being held 102 times since 1916. Also known as the #RaceToTheClouds.
Rivian’s entry is a stock R1T – but with Rivian’s new upgraded “#AscendQuadMax” trim. This ups the torque and horsepower to 1,198lb-ft and 1,025hp respectively, much higher than the previous 835hp top-spec.
