Driving the highways up here is really a beautiful experience. It's just pretty. Right up until you come across the scene of "Big-Rig Meets Bambi". It was like a deer exploded on the pavement. Not right. You also come to realize that magpies are really pretty birds until you find them eating unidentifiable animal bits on the side of the road. Then they're just nasty.

I saw an elk up in Cordillera (sounds like core-dee-air) the other day while Mike and I were exploring the uppity communities. Elk are very large and very dark in comparison to a normal deer. Scary large. I really need a bigger car.

Nothing else to report. I'm hungry because I stayed at the Christie with Mike last night and skipped breakfast so I'm going to go find food.
