Here is Zoo in front of the Brown Palace. Not laughing.
Last night out… It was rainy early on as we headed to dinner, and just plain wet when we were done. Note to all: New cowboy boots are slippery onwet stone block (and 16th street is ALL paving blocks!)
Tons of photos after the jump.
It was only fitting since I’ve already covered LODO, it was more important to meet some of the people that work and party here.
TONS – I mean LOTS of nightlife photos after the break.
After having morning coffee and blog time, I made my way over to The Wrangler. I was itchin’ for some cowboy boots. Having never owner a pair, or even gonne into a western wear store, I was floored. Lookit all them boots!
More pics and stories after the break:
After Zoo and I had left our mark on the town, I headed out with my tripod and electronic cable release to grab some essence of my own. Sleepy little town with some wonderful vignettes.
Here is where we had our steak dinner:
Lots of shots after the break:
We had no side trips today, except for a little celebration we’ll post separately. So, this is a small collection of photos that can be taken from Route 80. I gotta say, I had no idea that Wyoming had such diverse terrain, and a humongous canyon (that we did not visit – we would have [...]
Sure, I was lazy last night. I shot from the balcony of my hotel. But, I think I made the right choice. SLC isn’t very photogenic up close, so I backed it off. One pano of downtown and a few shots of isolated moments in the night.
Zoo found another winner today. After discovering we had 35 miles of construction between us and Salt Lake City, he chose a road north that connected with the arm of the salt flats we wanted to hit.
Below are images from just before we left paved road, to an unmapped (by Google) dirt road, Nevada to [...]

When Zoo and I headed out on our 1st road trip from LA to Denver, we made on little side trip in Arizona. We cut north of the mountains to get to Sedona and ended up in Jerome – high up on the rim of the mountains surrounding the area. It started with a cattle [...]

South of Pocatello, ID is a darker area away from city lights. We drove around looking for a safe, secluded spot to pull off and make some long exposures. Mission accomplished.
Can you See Zoo Broker’s profile in this one?
And drove down the mountain to find that industry never stops.
Covered a lot of ground, caught a lot of pixels (and some film, too!)
Here is a small gallery of today’s photos:
