I drove up the the Bay Area last night and stayed at my brother's house in San Jose.  I then drove up to San Francisco Airport this morning, picked up my taxidermy from my trip to Namibia last summer and then drove home.  The Warthog and the Springbok were taken with my Savage 11 300WSM:

Wifezilla said that she wanted a new SUV, so I asked her what was wrong with the 5 year old SUV she had that only had 24,000 miles on it.

She just wants a new one so I made a deal with her, if she gets a new car I get to go back to Africa the next year.  I expect that in either 2010 or 2011, I'll be going back!

Man; would I love to go with you!

 Maybe I better get started on that new kitchen my wifezilla is looking for before I'm "allowed" to go on my next adventure!
