Sorry about not hooking up with anyone while I was there. The assignment load was doubled at the last minute and I wound up doing 16 hr days for that week.
The trip back home through the Southwest was spectacular! Four days of roaming around the desert, admiring the fantastic scenery, was worth fighting off the heat. It was typically 100 degrees by 11:00 in the morning. I did 3,000 miles all total. The bad news is that the camera screwed up and I have only 4 pictures out of over fifty....Guess I'll have to do it again to re-take the pictures
Next time.
Every time I get a firm grasp on ignorance, somebody tries to take it away from me.
