Summer 2008 Part 1

Greetings from a 4 month hiatus from the blog. Summer has come and gone but work calls again. We are back in Korea and in full swing with work and school. I've attached a bunch of pictures below to look at. Part 1 is of the our 2 week roadtrip to Colorado and back. Part 2 is the rest of the summer with family and friends. Both blogs are a bit jumbled up with the picture order, so just know that it's not chronological.


After 2 days arriving from Seoul, we took off on a 2 week roadtrip. We took the scenic route through Montana and Wyoming.














So many buffalo.
