It was a bright but rainy day at the height of the fall colors, so we took a Sunday drive out to the boonies. I took the camera, but didn’t use it, though the trees were very colorful. Fortunately, I did take the GPS! This video shows the location of our car on a map in relation to the weather as we drove along. If that sounds boring, don’t worry, it has an epic soundtrack thanks to Free Music by DanoSongs.com. Note that the time scale in this video is not constant, as explained in the production notes after the break.
We’d never been to Hermann before, so we stopped at the winery. It’s a very picturesque town, but it was infested with Oktoberfest tourists, and we didn’t stay long. Much later we stopped in Cuba for a fast-food dinner after deciding to try to beat the storms out of Rolla. It was dark by then. There was some spectacular cloud-to-cloud lightning to the north of the highway on the way back to town, before the rains caught us again.
Looks good full screen. I wonder if YouTube does a two-pass reencoding? This looks a lot better now than when I first uploaded it.
