This photo doesn't quite capture the neon color of this field.
Day 96
An electric yellow
July 1st, 2010
I'm walking across America.
That's the idea, at least. I'm walking westward from New York City for nine months or so. If everything goes according to plan, I'll be in Oregon when the clock runs out. If nothing goes according to plan, maybe I'll end up in Peru or Mongolia or Pennsylvania. You can read all about the details of my trip if you're so inclined.

Here's my progress so far:
Now that’s a lotta yellow! Is this where neon yellow highlighters come from? lol.
It is a bit blinding so I can’t imagine how neon it is in person. The sea of yellow looks like it goes on for miles. Wow. Pretty.
Unbelievable. A rolling sea of yellow.
Holy Toledo Batman! That is just a whole lotta yellow. Gorgeous! Nature is just gorgeous…I approve!
Matt is now walking on the sun. And yes – if this is blinging in picture…what it must be like in person, I can only imagine……
Fields of Yellow Mustard, brings me back to my childhood.
Is that really the mustard plant from which yellow mustard is made, as in the “mustard we put on hot dogs”?
Why yes it is the one and the same mustard. Only now in flower form. Beautiful picture.
ooo how pretty!! It reminds me of that scene from Big Fish, only Ewan McGregor was standing in a field of daffodils.
Whoa…that is Canola…yes, what we get canola from…beautiful…but true…traveling through this part of the country and seeing huge amounts of this…I knew it must not be “weeds” but a cultivated crop…so…asked and looked it up…it is canola…for canola oil…what we learn when as we travel…
It looks like something you see in a movie dream sequence. It’s amazing. Gee, I’m getting more jealous of your adventure everyday. I’m too scared to quit my job to do something like you are doing. I hate to admit that but it’s true.
Thanks for letting this “scaredy-cat” live vicariously through you.
Now let’s see, each canola plant produces how many seeds? Who’s got a calculator?
reminds me of dorothy in wizard of oz….the field of bright flowers; dont fall asleep matt…….
So now I can say Holy Canola! Wow, I don’t care what it is really, it’s just stunning.
Very Beautiful!
:D :D :D
This is beautiful and so fluffy looking
