Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Yellowstone Pics
Just got back from a week at Yellowstone, and wanted to share a few pictures. All taken with my crappy 4 year old point and shoot Canon. No edits other than to crop and resize.
Mother Nature is pretty freaking amazing. And dangerous, too.

Been wanting to see that myself, but would be my luck that the day I got out there would be the day this giant volcano decides to blow it's cork...

There were times where it definitely was a bit unnerving, but I figure if it did go off, at least I wouldn't know it.
I hope that bad boy continues to slumber.

Nice pics. Last time I was at Yellowstone, I was a little kid. I remember being in our car and having it shook by a big bear.

Hmm, well I guess that's a reason for me NOT to go to Yellowstone. I doubt the park rules allow for shooting a bear for scratching your vette's paint job....

The only thing that will get close to your car is bison and maybe elk. The grizzlies we saw were incredibly human-shy, and the rangers are continually working to keep it that way.
Had one ornery bison bull eyeball our crv. I'm sure you've seen that old crazy cow rolling eyes thing, it was kinda like that. I didn't stick around to see what he'd do.
Only thing that touched our car were a couple of rude folks who thought it would apparently be hilarious to write "wash me" in the pollen on our tailgate, and one incredibly artistic person who stopped and took the time to draw a smiley face and middle finger in the snow on the hood. Next time, I'm going in the off season, when the *real* animals are gone.

Those are gorgeous! I've always had a special fondness for the upper geyser area and Mammoth Hot Springs. I'd be on a plane right now if I could, lol.
Thanks for sharing, Shadera, I know you had a great time
