Go Across America

Many spent all their lives in cities and towns so toxic with smoke and smog, and surprisingly all they do indeed is take walk a short distance with their dog; then go hone and watch television for hours, not a bit interested to travel across their land... Go across America by car, or by train, don't board on an airplane, and discover the many wonders never seen; behold the breath-taking landscapes stretching out to the horizons that erupt in dazzling colors... See America aboard a steamboat, gliding up or down the Mississipi River, and the people on both blanks will wave the America Flag as you pass; the deep south is friendlier than you think, as they would greet you with a flower... Go across America with a patriotic will. so did the early pioneers fighting off every storm, to find their lot on a lonely, barren hill and built that wooden shack and called it home: and with a faith that only Moses could posses, they, too, were led by that divine hand... Stop before the Canyons with their astonishing silence
