Not much to show I'm afraid.  The purpose of the trip was to transport a 3' 
tall chatterbox from Wisconsin to California while her mom & dad packed the 
house and arranged for movers to take their stuff to San Diego.  We had 
intended to take a southern route westward through several iconic US 
national parks but the US Congress foiled those plans.  Instead to we took a 
more direct route which passed near Utah's Antelope Island state park (which 
I recommend in not-too-hot weather) where introduced American Bison are 
easily spotted, sometimes wandering through the campgrounds:

the 4-year-old chatterbox, a delightful traveling companion:

Both photos: R8/DMR.  Lenses were 60mm Macro-Elmarit-R and 280mm f/4 
APO-Telyt-R.  All comments welcome.
