          Pete, No my wife is coming along, and since we have four days to get there, we only have to make about 400 miles a day. Were going to poke along. If anybody has any suggestions of things to take in along our route please let me know.

          If you go South out of Yellowstone should get a great view of Grand Teton NP. Of course its great to go to if you have time, but you looks like you have a lot of driving to do.).

          Thanks David
          We're leaving Butte Montana this morning, and I think we'll follow your advice and see the Grand Teton's.
          We went through the Clearwater National Forest yesterday. WoW.
          Still a ways to go.

          Just monkeying around....like Monsanto

            There is not a single shop or anything of that sort they are all closed and dont open till the morning. Ill have to have 2 meals from vending machines, ben and jerrys ice cream and a packet of cheeotoes!
            Flight isnt until 3:30pm tomorrow cant wait to be able to check in at 9 in the morning and get a decent meal!! I expected better form an international airport oh well!
            This is dedication to basecamp if I ever knew it, 2012 im not leaving it so last minute to book my ticket and getting a better connection than 22 hours 🀣
            By then I wont be a student hopefully and a successful artist with more money in my wallet set aside for hotels lol Its almost $100 for a hotel airport hence the sleeping on a chair in baggage!

              We just got home about an hour ago. Long drive across Nebraska and Iowa but nothing to compare with those long flights some of you have. Although I wish were still at basecamp, I am glad to be back.

                      I feel for you Liam. Sorry to hear of your layover troubles. I arrived in Huntsville this afternoon to a happy wife and daughter. Unfortunately my wife is sick so I am superdad for the rest of the weekend. Luckily I brought the weather with me. It was nice and breezy and only 80 degrees F and not too humid. πŸ‘

                              I needed to shave befor BC just to resemble what's in my passport (and visa) but I won't shave until n ext Friday (or Saturday ❓ )

                              Then the family terror will make me shave anyway. πŸ˜’

                                Arrived back in OZ about 2 hours ago. Only 27 hours this time back the other way. Traveled a total of 18,390 miles, still haven't had a full night sleep since leaving for Basecamp but what the hell!!! I had a great time.

                                Thanks guys for making the trip what it was.

                                'Googlers': thank you for your hospitality, it couldn't be faulted
                                'Ucationers': Thanks for the memories. So cool to finally meet face to face people I felt I've known for quite some years. Many laughs beers [gins] and headaches....

                                      I arrived home last night at about 9:30 (after roughly a whole day of travelling).

                                      It's really weird to look at a big monitor ATM. 😲

                                          Hi!

                                          We arrived yesterday at 19:30 in Rome. I started to worry about Csaba, who made the trip to London with us.

                                          Csaba, I've been searching for you after the flight at the airport in London! Where have you been?
                                          I'm happy to know that you ae home now!

                                          I really enjoyed the great time in Boulder.

                                            Of course, I went out for a cigarette.
                                            πŸ˜„

                                            Then made to the gate just fine. Was also walking about a little to see if I can find you but then Heathrow is pretty large, too.

                                            Anyway I also arrived home (PΓ©cs) at around the same time you.
