Managed to get out a little on the last day. Went to Taliesen West - Frank Lloyd Wright's fantasy settlement in the Sonoran desert. Then did some hiking on the Camelback "mountain" in Phoenix. Finally, met up with an old friend - Anubhav Bagley and his wife Shalini. Anubhav went to high school and architecture school with me and works as a planner in Phoenix. They took me out to Sedona. The landscape was just breathtaking. It also restarted a familiar itch. Of getting behind the car and driving long distances. Not sure when I will do that again.
So did the next best thing. Came back to this b(ack)log.
Today's pictures are from the leg between Keystone and Des Moines.
Not camera shy, just asleep.
The Iowa countryside, this picture is taken after leaving Des Moines. The road was slippery and there were a bunch of cars abandoned on the median. 
Precisely the kind of (re)connecting that we were hoping to do. Mamta's cousins - Ajit and Rini and Keya. This was after a day's R&R, the second of our two day-long breaks. Fortunately, it snowed a lot the day we were taking that break.
Crossing the Mississipipi, a second time, eastbound.
Getting out of Keystone, via Rapid City.
