Music Break Part 1

Hello Everybody,

Taking a break to share some traveling music with you. To prepare for my trip down the Mother Road, I felt it was important to have just the right mix of music.

 I bought myself an iPod Shuffle, which holds about 14 and a half hours of music or just over 200 songs, and I started working on adding music. I first went through all the music I have collected over the years and started adding songs that I thought was traveling related. You know like, On the Road Again, by Willie Nelson.

After I added that kind of themed music, I started adding songs that I liked that were not traveling related and noticed that I was picking songs based on other themes. Below is just part of my road trip mix. Let me know what you think. Got any suggestions to add? I am always adding and deleting music from this compilation so I’d love to hear what you got to say. Who knows, you might influence what I listen to every time I take a road trip.

Even though I am a fan of classic rock, I did purposely added other genres just to shack up things up a bit.
