It reminds me of a time when Eric and I were trying to outrun a blizzard going across Colorado--we kept going south, hoping we could finally go east to Missouri. The blizzard beat us and we ended up spending the night on the gym floor of a tiny high school.Carlahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14685492126157550044noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-534124540070958712.post-75919844712415888042012-09-29T11:01:56.070-06:002012-09-29T11:01:56.070-06:00Scary travels..thanks for sharing the photos:(Scary travels..thanks for sharing the photos:(Far Side of Fiftyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07995757632158408442noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-534124540070958712.post-43955393190290605442012-09-28T06:53:44.615-06:002012-09-28T06:53:44.615-06:00so very sad...AND scary.

I have heard of the Grand Coulee Dam in a Woody Guthrie song(I think!) but never seen a picture of it. My favourite picture is the one of the pylons fading into the distance.<br />Glad you got home safely!Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15941415622199071141noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-534124540070958712.post-36328282939875190822012-09-26T09:29:28.276-06:002012-09-26T09:29:28.276-06:00Glad you made it through the hot stuff- your shot ...Glad you made it through the hot stuff- your shot of the fire on the canyon wall is amazing!
