There were approximately 850 photographs taken on my cameras in the span of my Wyoming adventure. I am spending gobs of time going through them, cropping, crediting, editing, arranging, and putting them in an album. Don't worry, you sure won't have to deal with 850 of them. Many get tossed. But I'm only up to the morning of the 18th (meaning we've barely set foot in Yellowstone) in the world of photos, so it'll take a while longer to finish. And I'm not going to blog about the trip til the photos are up.
But here are some other pics in the mean time... The evening before I left, Angus found a turtle in the yard. I was out feeding horses when he went tearing off across the yard barking at what appeared to be a rock from my vantage point. Nope, turtle. How it managed to actually get into the yard I'm not sure. Of course I had to take some photos. Homer (cat) was fairly horrified by it. I took it back out to the creek behind the barn, and though I stood with turtle in one hand and camera in the other, it slid back into the water quicker than you can "turtle butt."

I think we might have picked up that hitchhiker in Arkansas. Don't often see one that big around here. Maybe an armadillo will show up next.
I'll call you if I find an armadillo. I'd have to call Suzie too, guess you two would need to fight over it.
Suzie only likes old stuff. Give me the armadillo first and I'll enjoy it as a live animal. When it gets old and dies, Suzie can enjoy its dried-out carcass.
Okay, fair enough.
Where do you keep all these pic files? Do you store them on an external hard drive?

Here there and everywhere. :-) The current crop from the trip is still on the camera memory cards too. I'm about half done, maybe... geez this takes ages when working from two cameras!
What kind of turtle was it? It looks huge! -BMc.
I don't know, I'm afraid my species-ID nerdiness doesn't really extend to turtles. As far as I know, it's "the kind that lives in the creek."
Wasn't there a nuclear power plant near your place and the creek? Could it be that it is a huge mutant (perhaps ninja) turtle? -BMc.
