Road tripping

This is how I saw Brandon for most of our trip. This shoot is when we were driving in ND.

We had driven from Traverse to Duluth, MN the first day and started very early the second day with plans to camp in western ND. However, we got to the national park sooner than we anticipated and the weather wasn't very comfortable for camping, so we decided to drive six hours to Bozeman, MT, where we were meeting Brandon's youngest brother Cody. The sun set picture below was taken somewhere in eastern MT. It took us a little longer to get to Bozeman than we thought it would and by the time got there absolutely every hotel within a 30 mile radius was booked up. We ended up sleeping in the car at a truck stop.

We had a fun visit with Cody in the days before he flew to the Caribean to visit his grandparents. Cody took us two tracking up to the mountain spring lake in this picutre. The next day we went on a raft ride that was billed to be white water rafting but was a very mild float down part of the Yellowstone River.

This may come as a suprise to people who know me well but I can actually survive camping. It is not my prefered method of lodging but it will do in a pinch. Brandon took this picture to prove to nonbelievers.

And finally, the Pacific!

For those of you with Facebook, I have posted more pictures of our trip there too.
