The Hubble just doesn't take pictures like these.

Whew! Okay, that's the last of the big trips for a while. Sorry about the lengthy disappearance! It's JetBlue's fault for their crazy All You Can Jet pass. Never let one fall into the hands of a travel addict, or he'll be MIA for a month! I've put up a new travel notifier on my profile to give everybody a clearer heads-up on my whereabouts from here on out (I'm shocked and positively touched that people missed me! ^///^). In the meantime, it's finally time to catch up with FA! Hooray FA!
Someone's requested I post all of the photos I took out West, but with the final count at over 4,000, I thought I'd spare you all the slide show and just share a few funny ones:
Don't forget to look both ways. (Vermilion Cliffs, AZ)
No more, no less. (Treasure Island, San Francisco, CA)
Don't! It's dangerous. (San Francisco, CA)
See? It wasn't kidding! (San Francisco, CA)
Shoulda gotten a better contractor. (San Francisco, CA)
Recall that a recent law allows one to exercise their 2nd Amendment right anywhere in a national park. Make of this sign what you will! (Muir Woods, CA)
Worth two in the bush. (South Lake Tahoe, CA)
I smell an opportunity for a prank. (Yosemite, CA)
Why hello there! (Yosemite, CA)
Nature's glory: now with parking! (Yosemite, CA)
Also, for any WWII buffs, here's a picture of the submarine USS Pampanito and the Liberty Ship Jeremiah O'Brien in San Francisco harbor. I'd thought the John Brown was the only Liberty Ship still afloat, so it was a pleasant surprise to stumble on the O'Brien! Well worth checking either out if opportunity presents.
Think that about covers it! Hope you guys enjoyed those pics. Have a good one!

...um, FYI, I think you've got... there's a little speckle of... that's ketchup, right? :S
(thanks for the comment, although I went and changed my icon on you. That Halloween one will be back soon enough, though)
When you say 'second image', though, which do you mean? I don't really view one as being after the other, and in terms of the order I uploaded them, it can seem reversed in my gallery, since the latest shows first, and all that.
In any case, I concur! They are truly amazing.
Well, depending on how early I return.

Hope all is well with you!

...oh, wait - you meant me? Well, the trip was worth every penny :) Now I just gotta work a bunch and earn the money back so I can do it again!
