Ah Tom, it's true. Another terribly wonderful adventure log! I swear,
sometimes I read these or revisit Larry's pictures and its all I can
do to stay home.

Thank you for your thoughtful follow up reply, Joy. It really is
inspiring to follow along on sites or read trip reports. We can always
learn something from them...whether it is about how to find propane
without a fuss, cool stops that aren't in guidebooks, or even small -
but incredibly significant - cultural advice. Here's to travelling to
wild places and coming back to tell our tales...and thanks to everyone
who does, because I sure enjoy your sites.
