Where the Bears and the Antelope Roam???

Here are some of the wildlife photos from our trip.

This was a young black/brown bear that was wandering alone the road in Sequioa.


This is a antelope/prong horn feeding on some grass in Bryce Canyon


A couple Ravens setting on a post in Bryce Canyon

A nice friendly lizard setting on the granite at Glacier Point, in Yosemite.


A seagull feeding in the saline flies on the shore of Mono Lake. Yes, all the black things in the picture are the saline flies.

A couple panoramics from our trip.

Here is Sandy in front of a redwood, the picture does not do the tree justice.

Here is the view from Hurricane Ridge in Olympic NP. Notice the glaciers on the peaks in the distance.
Here is Crater Lake and me. Now that's a lot of rain and snow melt. almost 2,000' deep.

Our New Digs




Well we have now been in Gig Harbor for almost a week, and we are starting to find our way around town. The camp ground is on the back side of a hill that over-looks the harbor, so today we drove to the other side and snapped a few shot of the harbor and Mount Rainier in the background. The next picture is the few out our back window. All we can see is trees and leafy green plants. The last picture is one of the "typical" harbor view houses. I wonder if they buy Windex in bulk?
