Went some place local with some mates :) I am in the 80, so not too many pics of my own car. But some good Sunday arvo fun in the bush!

Oh yeah, no one will go there without a blindfold!

And by crew I mean my wife, parents, and my brother and his kids.
It's OK. Besides, it's not like you're really "alone" there anyway.

It's where I found this:

My wife, daughter, and I just returned from a 16 day 4500 mile road trip. Started in KC, to Denver, to Grand Junction, to Moab, to Phoenix, to Yuma, to San Diego, to Malibu, to Joshua Tree, to Phoenix, to Cortez/Four Corners, To Estes Park, and back to KC. Unfortunately, we didn't get out into the wild as much as I would have liked to, but we still got to do and see a lot. Next year we are thinking of heading northwest.
 
Ha! Not sure if you're kidding or not, my boys found a similarly large footprint...
Totally serious. It was just up-river from the campsite.
 
Well that's creepy
Yeah, what's creepy is whenever I take friends camping at the river, some one always asks, "Were you up last night? I heard some one walking around my tent."

Have fun this weekend.:D

The camping was good, no Bigfoot encounters and lots of bees.

Well I should say it was good for those who were healthy, I had the flu and spent most of my time in the latrine puking and, well, you get the picture. We left early. Super disappointing all around.
 
This is a fantastic thread. I've been following MUD for a couple of years and just now came across this thread. My 80 (and my 60 before that) has taken me to so many wonderful places, I don't even know where to start. I miss the easy access and community spirit of fellow enthusiasts in North America, but having a TLC has allowed me to see some wicked cool places during my years in Africa. Here's a few highlights from East Africa.
Guys' weekend, Mikumi National Park, central Tanzania.

Any chance you have those in high-resolution? They look awesome

Thanks. They're just pics from my old iPhone 4. The full size pics look better but not quite sharp enough to enlarge. If I had a nice camera I'd print a bunch of panoramics in large format and hang them as a series.
Hmmm...Maybe I need to ask my wife for another toy...

Father daughter camping trip to Colorado. Visited my cousin in Aurora and got to see her new baby. 3.2k miles (central Ohio) with a 5 & 7 year old. @Dubbinchris passed me as we were leaving wanted him to see some of the pics.
