Some pictures from the last leg...

We left Crested Butte, Colorado at 10 a.m. ET Saturday morning and drove straight home. This was the sunrise at 6:30 a.m. ET from west of Indianapolis.
How many people does it take to change a windshield wiper? We had as many as nine people working on it at one point at the Walmart in Columbia, Missouri at 1:30 a.m. By the time the wiper was in place, the rain had finally stopped.
Blake's "shortcuts" thru Colorado easily cost us at least 40 minutes.
The sunset reflects beautifully off gorgeous Mount Crested Butte in Colorado.
Blake and I hiked up to the summit of Mt. Crested Butte.
The view from the top: 12,612 feet above sea level.
We started to hit snow toward the top of the mountain... on July 13th!!!
Blake and I pose for a picture with "Speghetti Eddie." He and his 80-year-old wife own what he calls a "world-famous" cafe in Reno, Nevada. Upon seeing this picture, Eddie shouted "Oh-a no!! I'ma showing too much breast-a!!"
Eddie scolded us for not ordering his wife Inez's signature dish: ravioli. So we ended up getting a plate of it on the house.
I cannot believe I forgot to upload this picture from our drive up the Pacific Coast Highway. Unbelievable view.
