Last state

We've finally made it back to Florida. Ten hours left until home, we're in Pensacola. Almost a safe feeling to be back in the state in which you live. I just wish we'd be there before midnight!

Bolts from the sky

Driving through Houston right now on a 23 hour jolt back to Lauderdale for tomorrow night. We've been extremely lucky with horrible weather this entire time, but it is the last stretch and we were bound to hit something. There are bolts crashing all around us, torrential down pours, and of course, more bad drivers.

I'd feel bad if anyone hit us, the steel bumper and brush guard on this would smoke a cute little BMW. Let's hope for good weather the rest of the way!

Fuel prices

Under $2.50 for gas in New Mexico! Nice to see a state that doesn't tax their people to death!

Yosemite At Night

Yosemite National Park might be absolutely beautiful, but the people watching is amazing. There are too many freaks to imagine. As some might have seen from the photo Bill posted on Facebook of Half Dome at Night, he got an amazing shot. For those who didn't, I've posted it here but a tad smaller than the original. I haven't ever seen Bill into night photography, but on the way back from the bar, I mean the grocery store, he had his camera, tripod, and an desire to capture the night. You could see Half Dome from where we were standing with two blinking lights. Those lights were crazy climbers who were setting up camp for the night on the rock face. With nothing but 1,000+ feet of vertical drop below them. Ballsy I say. The climbers we've seen around all seem to be chipmunks on crack, hopefully they're climbing alone. I think its something I should start to learn, and also something Bill is secretly dying to get back into. Fret not people, we've got so many interests right now that I'm not sure we could fit in another at the moment.

I need to download all of the Yosemite photos to post still, but I noticed this little nugget that just makes my day. Maybe its because she's at a kennel right now, or maybe its just because she's a lush. Anyway, she loves Domain Chandon Sparkling Rose... or so it seems by this photo. If you notice, its even Tika sized! Ooogle in the cuteness that is the lushy dog. Maybe we shouldn't give her wine with our dinner, but she is part of the family.

It's 7:05 here and the day hasn't settled yet, but the dinner has. It's time to hop on the bikes for a quick ride to Yosemite Village to pick up a souvenir before we leave in the morning. We're currently staying in Curry Village. Yes, its only a mile ride, so its more fun than driving.

Tomorrow is a longgg day of driving. About 430 miles. We're heading to Coronado for the Fourth of July!
