Ugh we are lost...

...STILL driving...

Still driving...

Got up at 5:30 this morning to watch the sunrise on he beach! Then we went to learn about salt marshes and now we are on our long drive up to Virginia.

Only three days left in our trip. The first 8 weeks crawled by so slowly, but this last week is flying by. I kinda wish we still had a few more weeks to go.

Dead Marsh Trees

These trees were killed when the beach receded towards the mainland because nearby development and jetties starved the coast of sand.

Salt Marsh Journey

We walked about a quarter mile into the salt marsh to see the native plants and animals. I got pretty muddy but caught a few crabs and took some cool pictures!

Jekyll Island

Just went to "The Grand Canyon of the East", Providence Canyon. It was formed in the last 200 years due to extensive farming.

Just got done diving. It was amazing! If only my phone was waterproof, i would have gotten some amazing pictures.

Momo

Momo heard i will be home in less than a week. He is VERY happy.

Great... On our way to scuba diving and Blue Van gets a flat tire! We always have such good luck...

New Orleans Trash Service

Alligators are involved

Statue in Downtown New Orleans!

FINALLY done with our academic stuff. Now we are headed to the French Quarter to begin our free day!

Made it to New Orleans!

Went to Poverty Point to see some of the oldest man-made mounds in existance! Then we practiced throwin atlatls. My throws were very laughable.

8 Weeks ago we left Bowling Green and made our first field stop at the Mississippi river. Now we are about to cross back over it heading east!

Been in the car all day...

ughhhh...

At least we are out of Texas now.

This is John

For some reason Jon loves to have tiny pigtailes put into his hair. Then he takes the rubber bands out and shoots people. People are beginning to dislike Jon.

Kiva

An ancient Kiva which could have been used to perform religious ceremonies, as a hot tub, or to play primative games of hopscotch.

More Ruins

Pueblo Bonita. It was pretty large and could have housed several hundred people.

Pueblo Ruins at Chaco Canyon

Slept outside last night in Chaco Canyon. Everything was fine until i woke up in the morning there was frost on my sleeping bag. Then i noticed it was cold...

Auuugh, missed the bus for showers and laundry and now i have to walk a mile with all my crap!

Pet Haus

Stopped in to get some Chester-Momo gifts!

Just passed a bar called "The Lonesome Dove". Reminds me of our birdfeeder and our own lonesome dove.

Dinosaur Tracks!

There were many others, but these were the easiest to see. There were also some really cool trace fossils of roots sticking out of the cliff.

Petraglyphs!

Landscape Arch

Glad i got to see it before it collapses.

Checkerboard Mesa

This pic was from zion but i forgot to send it. Its a sandstone cliff with erosional lines running through the bedding so it makes a checkerboard pattern.

On our way to Arches. Please dont rain...

Free day off in Moab. Unfortunetly it is raining so there is nothing to do...

Bryce Canyon

Its actually lucky that we are experiencing rain. In the Escalante area they only get 12 inches a year, and 4 inches fell in the last 2 days!

Heading to Moab. Saw Bryce Canyon but is raining for the last few days. All my stuff is soaked.

I didnt take my phone on Angels Landing or into The Narrows because the chance of dropping it was too great. I have tons of pictures on my camera though.

WARNING: Bloodthirsty Squirrels

Climed Angels Landing AND hiked The Narrows in one day!

Indian Gardens

It was greener than i thought it would be. There were also super intelligent squirrels that would cooperate together to distract you and steal your food.
