It was very refreshing to go from daily routine data to counting new things and creating new symbols during my trip. I went from doing the dishes and cleaning to counting feathers, gas stations and states. Below is the summary of my data from June 1-17.
With my other weeks of data I used the amount of each symbol in my art but this time I combined only one each.
I also created images from the songs that were stuck in my head as well as the billboards.

While walking around gift shops at Mount St. Helens and Mesa Verde, I came across a few books that I picked up. I have always collected feathers that I find when walking and I found 13 while traveling. Looking through the book on feathers I discovered that most of the ones I found were from eagles. The other books were full of symbols from Native Americans. I was able to find some similarities in the symbols I created.
In Looking at Indian Art of the Northwest Coast I discovered U design form examples using feathers. I experimented with the feathers that I collected.

During the 17 days that my family and I were traveling, we visited 14 national/state parks. We also collected 179 flowers mostly from the sides of the roads we were driving on. Also, while driving through the state of Montana, we counted 148 crosses. Each cross counted came with the realization that it represented a life lost.
