From Yellowstone

So, I discovered I can get access to the internet through the hotel in Yellowstone. Now I have between five and six e-mails, a journal entry, a buttload of pictures to upload, and other stuff....like the Delaware marathon entry that I started, then stored as a draft and never got back to. Darnit.

The drive was a lot longer than I had thought. We saw some neat stuff - town with ten people, horses, pronghorn, etc.

The most notable thing was driving through the Big horn mountains. It was my turn to drive, and it was one of the scariest things I've done in the last year. It was a 9000 foot climb, I had the car floored and there were still cars on my ass. There were two switchbacks going down that mountain, which were unbelievably scary. Try going down a 6% grade and then do a 180 degree turn. There were flashing lights and everything. We were so far up, there was still snow on the ground. I was very aware all there was very little between us and the edge of a mountain. The "Falling Rock" and "Open Range - watch for livestock" signs added an extra element of scaryiness to the entire thing.

Okay, I'm doing to take a crack at uploading pictures now.
