Tucson and Phoenix, Arizona
February 2004

   

This picture doesn't do the size of these tires justice. They are OVERSIZE.
I really wanted a pair of boots when I saw this. Like a real-life cowboy.
I still don't understand why you're afraid of these, Elaine.
Saw a lot of this...though not this dramatic...and not this black and white.
Good thing we made that AAA stop. Because taking the 10 to Arizona is confusing.
My #1 picture-taking obsession on this trip--shooting the rearview mirror.
"Saw things so much clearer once you, once you..."
Blythe: home of the best chicken-fried steak and eggs (over-easy).
That Chevron sign is gorgeous. I'm so over that sunset.
"Were in my...REARVIEWMIRROR!!!"
Wish I had a chopper and a girl, riding some two-lane asphalt under Arizona sky.
Instead of some crappy-ass truck.
Elaine, giving me the inverted hand. No you did-n't!
I can see backwards AND forwards. Like a friggin' owl!
This is Biosphere 2.
Biosphere 1 is the planet Earth (not in Antarctica as some people believe).
I thought I had read that Biosphere 2 was plagued with problems...
...like not enough food...
...not enough oxygen...
...and someone getting pregnant.
(Notice how everyone is looking in a different direction!)
Those were all just rumors, so we were told.
(Some spooky tunnel.)
(SPOOOOOKY!!!)
I'm still fairly certain that someone got knocked up and had to be ejected.
Without Elaine's purse, this picture would be pretty boring.
Elaine's driving too slow again.
B, why can't you turn to look at the camera when I'm taking a picture of you?
Black and white makes the desert look kinda spooky.
SPOOOOOOKY!!! So after many many miles, that concludes our Arizona excursion.
