Joan and I just returned from a summer road trip.
We towed the “Little Guy” with Joan’s Forrester for 5930 miles total and averaged 21.9 mpg for the trip. On the trip west we hie-tailed it along I-90 (four eleven-hour days) and then spent a week visiting family in Hamilton, Montana.
The trip back east was a bit more leisurely (nine days). Our first stop was Kintla Lake in Glacier National Park; from there we drove the Hi-Line (US 2) across Montana, North Dakota and Minnesota. At Duluth, we headed up the north shore of Lake Superior and entered Canada at Grand Portage; from there we drove the trans-Canadian Highway (Rt. 17) across Ontario. Near Ottawa, we headed south into New York and across the Adirondacks into Vermont near Middlebury, practically our back yard after all of those miles!
I did not open the camera bag once on the trip west, but once we got to Montana (and on the trip back east) I made photographs when I could. I have whittled down the results to two dozen in hope of not boring anyone!

Welcome Home!!!
So this is where you have been! The B&W of Bitterroot Valley and Kintla Lake are extremely well done – much detail in them! As for the color, North Fork and Ottawa Lake get my thumbs up. The first three florals are well captured, too.Your damselflies from the neighborhood are more detailed than these from the road.
