Damn! Photobucket is down this morning.

Family tonight for Mexican supper. I will post 'em, though.

Oh no!! you're eating your family?  I told you those bath salts were poison.

This will be the end the day's photos. One day left.

My better 2/3.

God didn't make that.

Great pictures, Jeff!

I especially liked the Utah ones. The landscape's incredibly beautiful.
