Indonesia

Actually, none of these pictures are from Indonesia. We are, however, hosting Jimmy's friend, Matthew, who is moving to Indonesia. He will be here until Friday. I hope he survives ;-), us, that is; I know he will be fine in Indonesia.
This is Long's Peak, taken from the trail to Gem Lake, near Estes Park.

Adolescent elk in my parent's back yard, Estes Park, CO. Estes Park was on national news this evening for being an elk playground. These are some young guys getting in practice for when they get older.

Today Jimmy and I went to Wisconsin to see Big Manitou Falls. At 165 feet, this is the highest water falls in the upper midwest. Although it is right off of highway 35, 12 miles south of Superior, it seems kind of neglected. You can't get too close to it and the trail along side the river had very few visitors, even for a Sunday afternoon. The ranger who takes your money is also unfriendly. He seemed suspicious of outsiders. This made me suspicious of him.
