I apologize for not finishing my photos yet but do to a few problems I will have to wait a little while.

My girlfriend's dad had a minor stroke and was in the hospital for a little bit but is at home and doing well.

I was just ready to get back to the photos but my internet connection is going to be shut off tomorrow or Monday. I am in a dispute with AT&T over my charges as now they want to charge me for over usage even though I have an unlimited internet access account. They want me to pay an extra $30 per month for the previous two months and I refuse to do so. I've had an account with AT&T for over 30 years and now they want to charge me more. I will get this resolved. I might have to change servers. They already lost me as a phone customer to Magic Jack.

Best of luck Steve O, fortunately I have never had any problems with AT&T in California. We'll wait patiently for the return of your reports and glad to hear your girlfriend's father is doing better.

Not a fan of AT&T either. Just have their phone service and pricing wise, they nickel and dime you to death. Work used to have their WIFI zip sticks, or whatever they're called, and they sucked to when you had a problem. Usually days to get straightened out. Their stores pi$$ me off. Usually 2 greeters and a couple of managers just standing around while you wait for the 1 sales rep.

Sorry for the hi-jack. Looking for forward to the rest of the story

steveO. we will take a collection to pay your internet bill as I know I can say for all that your reports are the best. You also helped me come in contact with a surgeon that would take out my sea urchin spines from my hand. none would do it in my town and you emailed me on to a research paper and I contacted the doc that published an article about sea urchin spine removal , I called him and he hooked me up with a surgeon in St. Louis that would take them out I live through your trips and I wish I could adventure like you.
thanks for taking the time to publish you thoughts and photos..I love them!!
