maybe i'll actually finish up and blog about that east coast trip from the summer.
k. we left off in yellowstone. i showed a shitload of boring and a few interesting geyser pictures, along with a fatty bull elk crossing a river.

well, now i have more pictures of a different bull elk. this guy was just sitting there for a while bellowing his heart out for the ladies. sounded like something you would expect to come out of a herbivorous dinosaur. kinda foghornish.
eventually he's fed up with the lack of results and stands up. i had a picture of him standing and bellowing, but somehow my dumbass saved another seated picture over it. so here is the closest thing i got. he grazed when he wasn't yearning for the ladies. eventually the women did start trickling in from the north. the male got ready. on that hairy waddle thing he's got going on... yeah... he started to piss on that. that really drives the ladies crazy. i think i need to grow a fatty beard again then piss all over it. no wonder i don't have a girlfriend! nature has to set me straight.
so they did meet up, but in the distance. not quite sure what went on over there. we eventually got bored and left.

on the road was our biggest surprise. and one of the coolest shots i think i got.
driving along, the sun starting to set, now even the buffalo are heading home. the fucker's heading right for us! see how it's about as big as that bug? it's a giant beast. this is how close i got to its ass. that's not zoomed in at all. if i had leaned out the window a bit i would have been able to spank it.

going more north we started to get into more canyonous (if that's a word) areas. here's another waterfall. go waterfalls...

sun going down even further means more buffalo. this one had just come out of one of the steaming ponds you can kinda see in the background. this had potential to be my best picture. if only he wasn't mostly shaded...
if that damn sun was a bit higher or behind me and the car.
here's a better lit picture with another buffalo ass.

and now the last stop in yellowstone: the little grand canyon, as it is affectionately referred to. i played with the functions on my camera a bit. which do you prefer? the lighter one seems a bit more hazy.
but yeah, that is red rock on the side walls.
yup. another view of that canyon and river.
this is a bit further to the right of the river bend. and now even further to the right you can get a better gauge of the canyon's depth.
running to a different area, i took a quick picture of the moon and the width of the canyon.
this was even further down the canyon was a waterfall. that blurry thing is the upper one. we'll come to the lower one in a bit.

but first, some deer. they all came out to graze at night. so the pictures, of course didn't come out that well. this one isn't so bad though. that thing behind its ear is the moon.

well. ran outta time. just a few more to finish up next time...
