Well about the developing we really kinda have it made my girl friends daughter works in a specialty photo shop , you can only imagine how that helps ! Soon as we burn some CD's from the laptop that we took with us I will post some of the pic's. Unfortunatly we did not get to take many of the Runner while wheeling as we were on the trails and desert alone. NOT gonna leave her behind for anything. So we just settled for pic's from inside the Runner.
To be honest with you the whole trip was very dramatic as far as the scenery and sites are concerned. You are very right though, you can only put onto film just so much. It is really something that you have to do and live to really believe all of what is out there to see ! Sounds a little corny but once youv'e done it you see !
The only trouble that we had on the whole trip with the Runner was that we were a little hard on it in Death Valley and the next day had to put u-joints in the rear drive shaft. Not a big deal though , done in a hour and back in the road for more. Not bad I don't think for a 94 Runner with 170,000 plus mile on it . Wouldn't have done in any other type of vehicle. Lots of fun and very reliable!

You went off road in death valley?

Are you using digital and transferring the pics on the card to your laptop? Otherwise, even with someone working in a photo lab, 1600 pics is ALOT !!

I hadnt thought of that before, using a laptop, you can transfer digital pics right to the pc and if you have an internet connection, transfer them to a website. That would really keep costs down alot. (Hey, Im just looking for an excuse to buy a laptop !) <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/pfft.gif" alt="" />
