Why I love my country

I do love this nation of ours dearly and not just for all the freedoms it affords. I love the culture, the landscape, the food, the diversity, and the throaty American V8. I chose the name of my blog for the images it conjures in my head. The iconic 8 cylinder is the epitome of all that this country holds dear. It's loud, uncompromising, powerful, beautiful, and the product of men and women who just wouldn't settle for second best. The engine can take you from Niagra Falls to the Napa Valley, droning down each and every mile of highway with the wind blowing through your hair, sun on your face and all around you the best folk the world has to offer. This is my happy place. This is where I feel at peace.
