“What?” you’re probably asking yourself.  “The next morning?  Doesn’t Ann ever take her own photographs?”  Yes she does, but for some odd reason she occasionally likes to point her lens in my direction (I know better than to do that in her direction too often), so we have another shooting the shooter.  From the next morning.  From pretty much the exact same location (we know this because we camped about a mile away, Beast has GPS and there was the same identifiable rock on the side of the road).  So what was it like the next morning?

You’re probably saying to yourself, “Hey, it’s not October 4th, that was almost a month ago!”  You’re right, but that was the day our shooting the shooter images for today come from.  It was a rather incredible day, beginning and ending with photography, and with a whole lot of overland driving in-between.  One of our images comes from pre-dawn and the other from after sunset.  So let’s see what kind of day it was!

Well, we’re back home again.  I’ve got a month’s growth of beard and Ann isn’t looking forward to her last 2-1/2 months of work.  But we’re back and it’s time to get back to our regular lives, even though that means preparing for even bigger changes.  Before we get to that, we should probably finish out with snippets from the tail end of our trip!

Well, the trip continues as do the adventures.  We’ve been doing a lot of off-road driving, much of it very fun, parts of it technically challenging and other parts . . . well, testing of our skills, patience and muscles.  The testing part was due, to put it in a word - Sand.   Read on for the adventure!

Well, we missed the Yellowstone snow storm by a week, though that was probably good for us.  Several feet of snow would definitely have put a dent in our trip plans.  Though we didn’t get the snow we were hoping for at Yellowstone, the adventure has continued.  And since it is laundry day, we figured we’d play catch-up to let you know where we’ve been.
