It was nap time for the rest of them, and 4&#215;4 time for me and my cameras. 185 miles and several hours later, I found myself with a bunch of pretty cool images, an ice-encrusted truck, and a mission to investigate purchasing a set of snowshoes.<\/p>\n<p>This is the first photo I wanted to post in this series, from beside a highway between Mercer and Wilton. As an information and communications junkie, I&#8217;m drawn to these old telephone poles that have long been out of service.
