Day's 7, 8, 9, and 10

Finally have working internet now that we're at a Hotel again. The last few days were great. We spent Sunday relaxing in the pool/hot-tub. Monday and Tuesday we hit up the insane Helldorado trail, and the spectacular Top-of-the-World trail. Yesterday we had to pack up and begin the long trek home. We drove from Moab to Pueblo Co yesterday. It was hard to leave, but at least the drive was scenic. There are still a lot more great pics to put up, but we're pressed for time and need to get on the road, so here are a few highlights!

Here you can see the fastest duck alive. We were traveling 65mph and this guy came from behind us and left us in the dust. He didn't stop and flew off out of sight.

These goat things got in a fight on the side of the road and tried to fight the Superduty. After a second glance they thought better of it.

Some kid apparently managed to burn this bridge down with matches....

Hey John,
Cousin Dan here. What a great trip! I'm impressed that you guys change axles AND make this techno stuff work!
I don't think that Grand Cherokee that you saw us dragging behind the coach would do the stuff you guys are traversing. Thanks for sending me the Blog. Mom said yesterday that you had been sending it all along...I think maybe a letter transposed in e-mail addr. We ate at the Big Texan on our way east that summer. A lot of your photos brought back memories of that trip. Looking forward to seeing you guys again.
Going to the desert this weekend, last riding trip of the season.
Keep in touch,
Dan

Hi Guys,
Looks like you've had a great time on your trip. I've really enjoyed the pictures and the blog. It makes me want to go cross country with Dave and Jack. However, a half hour into the trip, Jack would want out of the car!! Maybe someday... safe travels home. XO-Jessie
