A Brief Summary of the Great Plains Graduation Travel
后记和总结：
一路上5000英里的自驾毕业之旅，在整个中部大平原饶了一圈路上有各种艰辛，也有各种快乐。最后的两天都在疯狂赶路，通宵开车。
Along the way on a 5000-mile road trip graduation travel that spared the entire central Great Plains, there were joys and difficulties on the road. The last two days were spent in a rush, driving all night back to Rhode Island.
这次旅行很感谢学校RISD对我的研究内容的欣赏，给与了我奖学金以资助我的长途跋涉。尽管但是是整个美国油价最贵的时候，但是有旅游奖学金的资助，让这次旅行宽松不少。尽管几乎三分之二有多的奖学金都在这次旅行中用来加油了。但是一路上看到的风景，感受到的风土，看过的博物馆，各种展览， 和在书上，论文上看到的对比起来，尽管还缺少很多科学的研究和相关，但是也更加印证了我个人之前的想法。美国中部大平原以后地下水稀缺了之后，很可能再次沙漠化。而现在，就应该做出一些设计和措施，去逐步减缓和预防发生这种情况的可能。不然以后可能会是巨大的灾难。
Thanks to my school, RISD, our professor who appreciated the content of my research and gave me a scholarship to fund the long drive. Even though it was the most expensive time for gas, having the travel scholarship to fund the trip made it a lot easier. Even though almost two-thirds of the scholarship money was spent on gas on this trip, the scenery I saw along the way, the terroir I felt, and the museums and exhibitions I saw, compared to what I had read in books and papers, even though there was still a lack of scientific research and relevance, it also confirmed what I had personally thought before. The Central Great Plains of the United States is likely to be desertified again when groundwater becomes scarce. And now, some designs and measures should be made to gradually slow down and prevent the possibility of this happening. Otherwise, it could be a huge disaster in the future.
尽管中部大平原看似地广人稀，但是能够在上面生长和生存的人和作物，都不容易。自然环境会创造出怎么样的生存土壤，在北美这片土地上，一切都在努力地生长着，尽管环境多么恶劣，烈日之下，寒风之中，一切的一切，都在顽强地生长着。
Even though the Central Great Plains may seem to be sparsely populated, it is not easy for the people and crops that can grow and survive on it. The natural environment would create what kind of soil for survival, and in this part of North America, everything was growing hard, despite how harsh the environment was, under the scorching sun and in the cold wind.
一路上，外面的气温多次超过40摄氏度。自此不要觉得美国就是怎么样躺平如何如何。一切的发展，只不过为了少一点艰辛。感谢丰田塞纳，虽然是07年的15w英里的车，但是依然稳定，耐得住高温，虽然亚热天里，动力稍有下降，但是最起码，路上看到很多抛锚的车，塞纳始终稳定没有把我们抛弃在半路上。
Along the way, the temperature outside exceeded 40 degrees Celsius many times. Everything has evolved just to be a little less grueling. Thanks to the Toyota Sienna, although it is a 2007 old car with 150k miles on it, it is still stable and resistant to high temperature, although the power is slightly reduced in the sub-hot days, at least, I saw a lot of broken down cars on the road, and the Sienna is always stable and didn't abandon us in the middle of the road.
整个旅行下来累计整理拍摄了差不多600G的照片和素材，留下了很多宝贵的回忆。
The entire trip down the cumulative organization and shooting almost 600G of photos and materials, left a lot of valuable memories.
感谢队友的一路同行，如果没有你，此次旅行和很难走这么远。
Thanks to my mate for traveling with us all the way, if not for you, it would have been difficult to travel so far on this trip.
回家收到了学校寄出的毕业证书，居然就圈在一个羽毛球筒里寄过来。也算是完满。
I went home and received the graduation certificate from the school, which was actually enclosed in a badminton cylinder and mailed to me. It is also complete.
车车大概因为被我开进草堆里，这个护板被草堆剥开，产生了异响，然后一路上就听着这些异响开回家。这个汽修店20刀解决问题，顺便60刀换了机油。 又开始了搬家之旅。
The car probably because I drove into the haystack, this guard was peeled by the haystack, produced a noise, and then all the way home to listen to these noises. This body store fixed the problem for $20 and changed the oil for $60. On to the moving trip again.
最后也期望，下一次的旅行。
Expecting the next trip.
