Default summer trip

My wife and I decided to see some of the sites out west this year so we took the Vette. From Thunder Bay we drove to Jasper and then down to Glacier Park. After visiting with some friends in Montana we stayed in Yellowstone Park for three nights and then slowly made out way back and stopping at Crazy Horse, Mt Rushmore and the Badlands. I haven't posted pics before so I hope this works, for some reason it wouldn't on my Mac.

Great pics, but this one made me almost jump out of my chair ( major flashback )




Now if I had of hit that in Ohio ( instead of the doe ) those horns would have been strapped to the roof of the car, scratches be damned.

Mike,
Those are great pics! Surprised that you had trouble with your Mac as I am also a "Macophile" having recently converted from "Gatesism" to "Jobsism". Was your problem wrt pulling the photos out of iPhoto? That can be a bit dicey because of how some folders are handled (it took me a while to figure it out too).

Ray (the Deerslayer),
You had me in stitches!

Regards,

Sierra

I figured out the problem, operator error, I should know better than to doubt my Mac. OS-X is my saviour.
I loved Ray's comment also. One of the tour bus drivers at the park told us they had a problem with that elk last year ramming cars, 14 one day, and had to cut his antlers off. how would you like to make that call to your insurance company... no no mam the elk hit me!

You have obviously developed a phobia about anything on 4 legs....

You need help man! I hear Smokey the Bear is retired and gives life coaching sessions to fire fighters. You should look him up...

Sorry Ray but if you had hit that thing we might have had to strap you to the roof.

Didn't mean to hijack your thread Mike, but I couldn't resist when I saw that elk pic.

Did you also go the West Coast? Sorry, couldn't resist.
Great pics, you and the car enjoyed it no doubt. My wife and I (and our Dog)
take the very long (30-45min) drive many times a year, never tire of the mountains.

This was our second time out to west (sorry no coast for us) the first was on motorcycle. The drive sucks from the Manitoba border until Alberta but what can you do. My wife and I love traveling in the vette but when the road gets twisty nothing beat a bike for fun.
