<p>I'm wading through the last of the pictures. I've sorted through another 200 and have the same to go. Good thing we had a digital camera. They aren't posted yet. Maybe by tomorrow.</p>

<p>In the meantime, stop and enjoy the useless Google Ads in the middle of my front page. Just a test run here. It will soon be much less conspicuous.</p>

<p>Catching up on 16 ...

<p>We're back. We returned Tuesday evening at 9:45PM. We put over 6,000 miles on the car over 16 days, and I still have about 250 pictures to sort through and post. </p>

<p>Amber and I have been on a "media blackout" for the past three days as we have been trying to not find out who won Survivor. When we left there were six people left, so ...

<p>I'm about an hour away from meeting my cousins, Conroy and Mike for the first time in two years, (closer to four for Mike). SF has been much cooler temperature-wise than So Cal. It's always temperate here which agrees with me but may be a little too cold for Amber, who despite being born in Michigan, is completely unable to generate her own ...

<p>I sit again atop the stairs at the Travelodge LAX South, this time posting around two dozen pictures to the Images section. The pictures are now caught up until Coachella. With around 200 pictures from Coachella, that's going to take quite some more time. Maybe I'll do it in the car tomorrow as we ride to San Francisco. </p>

<p>It looks like we're going to drive up ...

<p>I currently sit atop a flight of stairs outside my room at the Travelodge Motel (which turned out to be the best room we've stayed at), just south of LAX (LA airport). I am getting internet access from somebody's house across the street (I think), and it blinks in and out, but I think I'll be okay. We just got back from a whirlwind dinner ...

<p>Who would have thought that Las Vegas would have been a town that was hard to find Wifi in? Well, maybe if we looked harder, but Amber only has so much patience to drive up and down the Strip with me in the passenger seat, yelling "Here! Turn Here! ... Wait.... nope, it's gone."</p>

<p>Then, when I drive up to the roof of a parking ...

<p>Despite some doubts to the contrary, we arrived in Flagstaff at about 11:30 PM last night. That puts us about an hour away from the Grand Canyon - where we will spend the day - and end up in Las Vegas. <a href="http://www.chrisboylan.com/coppermine/thumbnails.php?album=7">There are pictures for you to see so far</a>. No descriptions yet, but they will come in the next few days.</p>

<p>A quick recap:</p> ...

Here's an article from the AP, I can't get on BBI to see if there's futher conformation, but it appears as though KC will be released within the next few days:

With Eli Manning in town, Kerry Collins is ready to leave.

Collins, who took the New York Giants to the 2001 Super Bowl, said his goodbyes Monday after five years with the team. While the quarterback wasn't officially released, Collins and the Giants said ...

<p>It's 9:30 AM, we're walking out the door, and Amber is already fed up with me.</p>

<p>Sparkling. Oklahoma City here we come.</p>

Alright, so this draft thing went a bit nuts. The Giants waited at #4, and selected Phillip Rivers -- WITH NO TRADE IN THE WORKS!!! Are you insane Ernie Accorsi? Then, they talk with San Diego and trade Rivers to San Diego for Eli Manning. Okay, good so far.

Until Ernie Accorsi struck. The Giants also gave up their third this year and their FIRST AND FIFTH NEXT YEAR!!!!! WTF!!!!! Why did they give up ...
