About Us
D.W. is a recovering grad student who has spent the last 3 years researching what it means to be "normal."
Family members sadly note that if this was a personal growth project, it was a dramatic failure.
J.K. made the wise decision to forgo grad school, but then enlisted in the never-ending pursuit of upholding government ethics. At least she's getting paid more...

Wow! The landscape is amazing. Looks like you guys are having a blast. 'Dad'
Double Wow!! Beautiful!! And what fun for those of us back at our desks to vicariously enjoy what you are doing/seeing.
Love, Mom
Breathtaking.
I did a hot balloon ride once, but it was over a trailer park in Largo, FL. Pretty cool, ya know.
The video was really stunning. How difficult was it to post a video to the blog? I also wonder how those beautiful "chimneys" were formed...same way as in Monument Valley in the U.S.(erosion of softer rock)?
"Ellas" gang
Blogger now has a "blogger in draft" website to test new features, one of which is the video upload - see http://draft.blogger.com/home
Much of the geology involves soft volcanic tuft rock with tougher basalt on top. Erosion forms the "fairy chimneys" leaving the basalt balancing on top. Thanks for the comment.
