Fall 2005 tour pics

[bluesurf]

Hey there, everyone....thought that I'd post up the direct link to where I've been storing pics of my latest tour. This one began on October 1st in the Seattle area, and went down to San Diego via Yellowstone. From there, across the south through AZ, NM, TX, LA, MS, GA, and into Florida. The last week or so has been in NC and TN, Deals Gap, etc. and the Smoky Mountains area. The fall colors have begun to turn, and are quite something to see, not to mention the edge-scraping roads. I'm going to head west to Mountain View, AR, today, ride Push Mountain, then spend a couple of days a bit farther west riding 16/7, etc. and enjoying the Ozarks before pushing on westward again.

Anyway, here's the link, hope that you all enjoy. For those that would like to sit back and watch the pics go by unassisted, select "slideshow" from the Style listbox in the upper right.

Great pictures, bro... :clap: and a heck of a road trip.

I've taken the liberty of picking one great shot as "picture of the month" for the Home Page of the Italian FJRForum.

Glad that you liked them; feel free to use as many as you'd like (I'm particularly partial to the FJR shot with the red cliffs of Sedona behind it.)

Once I return home, some of the originals will definitely be printed/postcarded/etc. for future use.

BlueSurf-

Wow - what a trip. Lucky You. How much time did you have to play? Great pix. A very nice travelouge sp?

THANKS!

The camera is a Canon S70, set on full resolution...since I dropped it about 20K miles before this trip then the flash hasn't worked, so taking clear indoor/dark pictures without a tripod involves attempting to be as still as possible.

I've been traveling around for the last year.5 or so, and this trip was limited to 48 days since I needed to be home for Thanksgiving.

I'm going back to work for a few, and think a jaunt up to Alaska is in the works after the spring thaw, then over to the northern east coast.

Thanks for all the comments, ride safe!
