American Road  |  Volume 11 No. 4
An aqua-themed Winter 2013 issue celebrates the magic that water wields over the traveler.
The excursion begins on the north bank of the Columbia River at the turn of the twentieth century. "Bank Shot: The Wet and Winding Way of Old Washington State Road Number 8" tells the story of Sam Hill, millionaire road promoter, who believed in scenery, sovereignty, and the means of tying both together. Through an odyssey that involved serpentine stage dancer Loïe Fuller, French sculptor Auguste Rodin, and Queen Marie of Romania, Hill orchestrated a promotional coupe in support of a river road that still splashes horizons with splendor.
"American Road's Water Works" examines California's Wave Organ, Michigan's Cascade Falls, Alabama's Lady in the Lake, and other sites around North America that go with the flow. On US 40, saltwater taffy is chewed; on US 1, a descent into the History of Diving Museum is made; on US 66, a stroll around Lake Overholser occurs; and on US 20, one pauses to ponder the meaning of all things at the Plumbing Museum. Ultimately, American Road® brings readers results of its second annual travel photo contest in "Waterways." This year, the magazine asked artists to focus their cameras on waterways, waterfalls, beaches, and bridges—and any other sites that leave senses wet.
