Our New Resolution

For our final car hike,
we decided to make some new resolutions.

 We will return to the Rockies

We will buy a 4WD

We will not wear wool

We will not squat

or drain our lizard in
the wilderness ever again

Breaking Out Of His Shell

Saw
Remove
Replace Celebrate

Follow The Tiny Dirt Road

Turn right off of any mountain road
and discover a dirt road
that winds it's way to sprawling vistas
tree-top camp sights
and trails that lead to more
scenic and beautiful places
then you begin to narrow your focusand develop an ideal perspective
on the benefits
of taking lots of right turns

Our First Car Hike

began in a torrential downpourthat turned to ice at 10,000 feetand created the perfect environment
for a car picnicAfter lunch, we continued on our 4WD hikealong the Snake River
until miraculously, we stumbled upon
this wide-open meadowwhere rock slides and peaks were abundantand these tiny cabins spotted the terrain
in an old mining town that
was definitely out for revenge

DOIN OK Hitches A Ride

A solemn stare
as Doin Ok's are loadedand drift past our home
as we say farewell to our
Nomadic Adventure

River Residence

The tour began innocently enoughwith a picture at the rivers bend

and the girls were happy warming their
toes in the natural hot springs
until I dropped them off in their new home
and they met their room-mate

Queen For A Day

I crowned my princesses put them on a biketaught them hand signalsand how to balance on the rocks.
In return
they put me in a cage
threw me on a swing let the flipping thing gowalked me through a deep dark cavern
made me bobsled down a mountainate dinner with a crown
and gifted me with a king-sized undies
