Hi

you have a penchant for description, both of human beings and their surrounds like the highway, for example. This casual write about that trip you obviously enjoyed has some interesting realistic observations, such as the nature of the break you took before reaching home. Looks like you never wanted to end the trip truly. If only such things were possible!

Five of you developed a warm friendship, which is visible through gesture and touch.
"All five of our thoughts could have been one."

Ryan Adams has appeal no doubt. His song ended too. The end is inevitable for any event. That philosophy came through your feelings of remorse quite transparently.

I thinks it is a nice take on things we never want end. Dialog, description and driving to another destination combined well.

Write on!
