Loading ...out of order & out in the cold
Disorderly Greetings On A Full Moon Friday!
The disorderly part is the fact this latest gallery is current, as in it just took place, versus following the chronological order of my travels, which are about a month behind in processing of the photos. This current event seems worth sharing now, if for no other reason than it’s Friday and there’s a full moon, which reportedly can make some people act crazy. Anyway, you decide whether or not this was simply a very cool event, or just plain crazy:

My walrus friend and I will stay in Yakutsk until the middle of next week. Then, we’ll join a small group in two very well winterized 4X4 vehicles and spend 8 days driving on the ‘Kolyma Highway’, from Yakutsk to Magadan. The adventure continues!
Enjoy the full moon and don’t do anything too crazy! Ow-oooooo….. . . . . .

Bill, Dubai is looking better after these photos!
Ha! You must be getting soft
I feel really fortunate, as I’ve always loved the full range of everything, including climate. I like hot & cold equally. The coolest thing (pun intended) is that once you get away from developed areas, such as ski resorts, nobody is out in cold weather. Beautiful places that are mobbed in summer are empty in winter. Of course, I’m usually out alone, because, well, all my friends have gotten soft! No worries, I don’t mind hanging with younger people, not at all.
Stay warm and keep enjoying!
and if your toes get cold …
