Thoughts taking the scenic route with no intention of arriving anywhere.

means Talking or writing in a long, winding way that drifts from topic to topic without a clear destination.

from From 'ramble,' which first meant to wander about on foot, roam without a set path — possibly linked to Middle Dutch 'rammelen,' used of animals roaming restlessly, especially in heat. The physical sense of wandering came first; the talking-in-circles sense followed naturally, your feet and your sentences both forgetting where they meant to go.
