Hi
Your shots are very interesting and the captions are a very big help and are well done.

If I may make a suggestion, and you can still do this if you have the original images. Some of your images should be closer so we can enjoy the detail.

eg. On the U Drop Inn it would be nice if we could see the green tiles that you mention. Sadly it's all too far away and 75% of the picure is empty road or empty sky.

This applies to shots like the interesting Rock Cafe and the Eisler Bros general store, to name a few.
Look objectively at the Rock Cafe. Again about 75% of the image is roadway or sky.
Always mix in some close-up shots that show detail.
It makes your display so much more interesting.

It's difficult when one is traveling, but also try for some early or late shots to add warm colors to your display.

I enjoyed the journey very much. Thank you for sharing it with us.

Would you mind telling what software you use to make your captions? I'm new to this digital world ( bought a G3 a few weeks ago), and soon will need some system for captioning.

Thanks,
