Anyhow, the purpose of this EMM is to show some photos from back on the road in the spring, which we are just now getting sorted.
These images are from a great jaunt into Arches National Park for an evening picnic and light show at Delicate Arch, which is still standing in spite of the reports of a notorious soul climber/free soloist trying to tear it down...
In addition to the lovely arch view, Rose and I met some fascinating expat Russian amatuer photographers on a whirlwind (5 day, 4 state) southwest photo tour. They noticed Rose and I eating a dry supper of bread and cheese (and a cucumber) and gave us a beer to wash it down with. Then they included us in their celebratory dessert of port and fresh grapes (nice combo!) and entertained us with tales from their epic photographic odyssey. They were ecstatic about the photos they nabbed of the arch, and relieved to be travelling without their wives, who apparently prefer souvenir shopping to marathon 5 hour drives between photo sites - imagine!
Enjoy the photos,
Ty
