While in Utah, I stopped at Arches National Park but I didn’t stay very long as I’m still getting over a cold and the hiking at nearly 6000 feet above sea level was killing my chest. If you are not familiar with Arches, just think about the desert in the Roadrunner and Coyote cartoons…it’s […]
Tracy and I bombed out in the casinos. We did have fun playing the games, but left Vegas slightly poorer than when we started. I’m slowly working on cleaning up a bunch of my photos for printing, but here are a few pics from the top of the Eiffel Tower at night. […]
