Thanks!

Alive And Well
I have been terribly remiss in writing since I've been back from the trip.
Obviously, I'm alive and well.
I'm going to start transcribing my written journal entries today. I've also got tons of pics to show, over 1,400!
What a great trip. Just wow.
Stay tuned!

Marmot Food
Marmot. This one wanted something to eat and he wasn't taking "No" for an answer.
He pushed one of us off the mountain just to prove he wasn't kidding.
We gave him a Snickers bad...

4-Wheeler Mechanic On The Fourth
After I got home yesterday, Amy and I packed up and headed to her parent's in Madisonville for the fourth.
No fireworks because of the dry spell we've been having, but we still had a nice time. I got Tristan's 4-wheeler running and we rode that around until we hit some sort of metal spike thing. We wer about 5 miles from home.
I was kind of clever here: The spike was about 9 inches long and protruding from the center of the rear tire. Thinking fast, I carved a stick that was slightly larger in diameter than the spike and was maybe 3 inches long. I pulled the spike, then immediately jammed the stick bout halfway into the tire before the air had time to leak out. We were able to drive it all the way home without loosing all the air and ruining the tire. Sweet.
Later, the muffler fell off.
hahahaha
I fixed that by taking the manifold/muffler screws out of his little dirt-bike and used them on the 4-wheeler.
I was a regular mechanic that day. I think I'm also Tristan's hero which is a pretty cool way to be on the Fourth of July.
