| "If you ever plan to motor
west..." again... The first one was so fun, it just had to be done again. This series of pictures is from the cruise in 1999. A little smaller group this time, but no less mischief. |
|
|
| You gotta love the folks in Vega. They actually made a banner for the club! Never was there a more friendly bunch. Here are the fearless visiting contestants holding their ammo. | |
|
|
| This is a great shot of the 3 different color birds lined up at the halfway marker for Route 66 in the Texas panhandle. | |
|
|
| Dennis apparently likes to supplement his diet with a mouthful of mosquitos and moths. (Maybe hard to tell in this pic, but his mouth is wide open.) | |
|
|
| There are parts of Route 66 that aren't even paved as seen in this view. | |
|
|
| No birds in this pic, but the beauty of the scenery of Route 66 had to be captured here. This is Window Rock near Gallup, NM. Capital of the Navajo nation. | |
|
|
| And from this pic you can see that Hugh's mind resembles Window Rock -- there's something missing... | |
|
|
| This trip was at times taxing for the little birds. Here you can see that they have climbed over 1 mile in altitude. | |
|
|
| Bob, Dennis, and Hugh posing in front of one of the many breathtaking sights. This one at Sandia. | |
|
|
| Here is the teepee village in Arizona at which the party spent a couple of nights. | |
|
|
| Hugh wondering just how a margarita machine might fit through that doorway. | |
|
|
| Here is the crew celebrating their return to Texas outside El Paso after many many miles. Unfortunately for them, they have many many more miles left to go. | |
|
|
| A good pic of the whole gang. |
