There were agents along the road in association with the transport of the giant shovel though...
One of them was just a single solitary dude in a hardhat holding one of those road construction stop signs, and his truck was parked to the side of the road.
I thought it was super weird that he was totally alone out there, and this was a huge long stretch of road where you could see for a LONG way. There was clearly no construction going on.
So I was the only car on the road for a hot minute, and I stop for him...
He comes up to my window, friendly guy, starts asking me strange questions, seemed like a probing.
Noted my southern accent, thought it was interesting that I was all the way out west exploring around on my own.
He was definitely sizing me up because after the whole giant shovel thing, I got the impression that they wanted to know exactly who was on the road that day to see whatever kind of massive machinery they were transporting.
Made me think the whole thing was supposed to be as secretive as possible.
