I noticed last night that webshots was slow while I was looking at Bowlderman's pics.
Trying to upload tonight will take forever even with cable.

Hey......that's what my problem is....I'm really a size "2" but have to wear a size "10" with all the swelling I've experienced on the trip........LOL!!! I wish.
Ouch...Gem that's looks bad. Glad to hear you are recovering. Puddlejumper's legs and feet are very swollen, but is starting to look better.
Thanks to everyone for offering her support after her fall at the "cables". Her knee is very bruised and swollen, but she is able to bend it today a bit more so hopefully she is on her way to recovery.

I just want you all to know that it was not only the place but mainly the people that made this trip so wonderful! Miss you guys so much already!

Swelling
Odd that a few of you would swell like that. Did you guys take any medication that may have made your system retain water?

Great pics, WW, Gemini, Trekkingirl! TG, can I borrow one for my album?

Looking forward to the rest. Looks like a fun trip.

I get the swelling too on longer trips. Usually in the face a week into the trip, and the feet swell a day or two after. Don’t know what causes it. After 30 days on the JMT, my feet swelled up. I thought maybe it was a sign to go back on the trail???

Phil & Navi, enjoyed lunch today! No one even knew I got back late.

Buck, I can’t see webshots anymore from work either. Got back from vacation and I got the big “Security” screen saying that site is blocked. :-(

Adding these from the other thread so the photos are all together:

Dang it. Webshots is still being bad. Can't see Snow Nymph or Bowlderman's photos. : (

That Bowlderman, I tell ya, I'm always missing him by a hair. First he breezed through Seattle, then he goes to the beginning of the Sierra trip. Someday Bowlder!

I started a group page for all of the photo links. I've got a busy week ahead, so you might want to email your links to me so they don't get missed

As always, if you prefer not to have yours included or have any other issues feel free to drop me an email for that too

Camera Strap
WINDWALKER

I saw a photo of you with your camera strapped to your straps of your backpack on your chest. How do you like this set-up? Does it bounce on your chest? I think we have the same camera, Canon 300D. I generally carry it around my neck/shoulder with a neoprene camera strap, but it bounces around and gives me neck pain after a while. Ideas?
