On The Road, Jack. (Prompt 18, Chapter 5)

At this point it is fairly obvious why the book is titled On The Road. The main character is on the road for the majority of the book so far. He is constantly moving from place to place. What makes this book interesting are the people he meets on the road. One of the most interesting experiences in the chapter is when Sal gets a ride from two farmers. The farmers drive a truck and pick up everyone who wants a ride. Everyone plies in the back and has a grand old time. On the truck he meets many characters like Mountain Slim and Mississippi Gene. After trying to pick up some girls and drinking a lot, Sal hitches his final ride and makes it to his destination, Denver. The experiences he has on the road makes this book what it is.
