This post will be the final post to the blog. :)
 |
| The City of Dallas! |
 |
A turnpike?
The Republicans are taking your money!
Call in the Tea Party Express! |
 |
A Texas oil field!
See all the people manning the rigs?
See all the jobs being created?
No?
Neither do we. |
 |
Texas: 107 degrees.
Yet another reason I won't live in this damn state. |
 |
Look at that!
Texas bought Memphis and moved it! |
 |
Robinson's Bales and Bling:
Because cowhands need to look fly for the honeys. |
 |
A Texas freeway.
(It doesn't matter which one; they all look like this.) |
 |
Texas landscape!
(It doesn't matter where; it all looks like this.) |
 |
New Mexico!
(Not Pictured: Rob and Erica pulling over to present their asses to the state of Texas.) |
 |
| New Mexico Desert! |
 |
Got Photo Bombed by a fucking semi.
Asshat! |
 |
| Desert! Lots of it! |
 |
| Pretty Desert! |
 |
More Pretty Desert!
(It's not an oxymoron. I swear it's not.) |
 |
| Arizona roadway. |
 |
| Approaching Flagstaff, AZ! |
 |
Trees in the desert?
The New York Times is on it! |
And now the photos from the Grand Canyon
(Finally!)
 |
Keep Right Except to Pass.
I'm not sure if this is a road sign
or commentary on the state of Congress. |
 |
Wait.
THIS is the Grand Canyon?!
We drove 2000 miles for this?!
Oh fuck that!
We're going home. |
 |
Oh wait.
Maybe that wasn't it. |
 |
| Wow! A big hole in the ground. |
 |
Look at what water did to the Earth.
This is why I drink soda. |
 |
| Grand Canyon, yo! |
 |
If you look closely, you can see a faint white line down there.
That's a trail to get to the bottom. |
 |
| Looking towards the West End of the canyon. |
 |
| Erica grew metallic wings on the trip. |
 |
| Looking up one of the many offshoot canyons. |
 |
| Is it just me, or does this shot make the canyon look like it's under water? |
 |
| Rob ignoring the "stay on the path" signs. |
 |
| A hipster photo bombing Erica. |
 |
| This shot helps give some perspective on how far down the canyon goes. |
 |
| Unobstructed view looking west. |
 |
| Strata. |
 |
| What kind of insane people would climb down onto the outcropping? |
 |
These Kind!
(Yeah, that's a sheer cliff behind us.) |
 |
| I like this picture. |
 |
Arizona desert and mountains.
And a truck. |
 |
| PST! |
After the Grand Canyon, we headed towards Vegas.
But first a quick stop at Hoover Dam.
 |
| One of the statues at the Hoover Dam. |
 |
| Memorial Plaque. |
 |
Hoover Dam, Hoover Dam,
Fucking Hoover Dam
(That's for you, Ashley.) |
 |
From the top of the dam looking towards
Pat Tillman Memorial Bridge. |
 |
| Looking down the face of the dam. |
 |
Poor Herbert Hoover.
Known for Hoovervilles and the single-most-environmentally-destructive public works project in United States History. |
 |
| Looking straight down! |
 |
Lake Mead!
(Heh, heh: mead...) |
 |
| A picture of Rob in Arizona taken by Erica in Nevada. |
 |
| State line. |
 |
| Memorializing the workers' dog. |
 |
| The Strip in the day. |
 |
| Eiffel Tower: Vegas Style. |
 |
| The fountains at the Bellagio. |
 |
| The Vegas strip at dusk. |
 |
| Notice all the cars are coming into Vegas? |
 |
New York, Vegas Style.
(Saw the real one: it's better). |
 |
| Excalibur! |
 |
| The Luxor. |
 |
| Rob and the Strip. |
 |
I wanted to stay at this hotel.
Erica wasn't having it. |
