Trip Albums

My sewing is going slowly because I'm also trying to work on photos from our two road trips from 2012. I really, really, really want both albums done before we go on another trip this summer. I've been working for sometime on our fall trip, which was to the US Southwest via Yellowstone, but there's an awful lot of photos. We'd never been there in fall before, and neither had we ever been to the North Rim of the Grand Canyon. The Spring trip also started through Yellowstone as we went to the Pacific and headed up the coast to Vancouver, and I gave in to temptation and started that album last week too. Working on photos from both trips simultaneously was a bit odd since the trips were so completely different - one with bright blue skies every day, in the hot, bare red landscape of the southwest, and the other in constant snow, rain or fog, to the rain-forests and rugged shoreline along the Pacific coast, where we rarely ever had any sun the entire four weeks of the trip.  Switching from hot and dry to cold and wet...

So I thought I'd share a few photos...first from the Southwest....

Sunset, Cape Royal, North Rim, Grand Canyon National Park

Natural Bridge, Bryce Canyon National Park

Sunset, Lake Powell

There's still 5 days worth of photos to process and add to the album, and then I'm done!!!

And now for the spring trip....

Rainy Mountain Top, Oregon

Sahalie Falls, Oregon

Rough Seas, Coquille Point, Oregon

I've only worked through the first four photography days so far and there's three and a half whole weeks worth to go. Sigh. This one is going to take a while yet.
