Howdy Blaine,
my wife and I are currently on holidays in the USA.
Didn't check for public holidays, so the traffic is pretty overwhelming.
On Friday we left Seattle for Portland. Driving bumper to bumper on a 5 lane highway for about 50 miles before it thinned out was a shock!
Nothing to compare with back in Australia where we come from.
Good luck with the Salmon.
We have visited the Grand Canyon, Zion and Bryce Canyon NP's.
My heart ached at the beauty ...
From Vegas we flew to Seattle. We were hoping to see the Grand Tetons and Yellowstone, but due to the public long weekend we found travel and acc. too hard. So now we are driving to Yosemite NP before leaving LA for home next Thursday.
I did want the trip to last a couple of months but I have to start chemotherapy in June.
We have both had a wonderfull time and everyone is so polite.
People say we talk funny

You are all truely blessed with a wonderfull land.
The only gun time I've managed was the almost mandatory Full Auto shoot in Vegas.
Seen plenty of wildlife such as Mule deer, Pronghorns, Prarie Dogs, chipmunks and squirrels. Saw 6 Condor at the GC NP.
Would love to see a Bear!
Sorry for the long type.
Kind regards,
Kirby.
