In retrospect....I'd have to say the trip down Serpentine was definitely the fun part; although it did'nt feel like fun when I was doing it....for me it was a first - going down a creek that has no (official) trail marked on the map (the National Geog one at least!). Me thinks I am onto a new addiction here Doh!

...already planning going down Hance creek to the river someday and maybe Ruby....

Thanks for the pointers Tom. I got things working now and have some photos up. I'll go back and add some captions later.

Serpentine was a fun side trip. I'm really glad we did it. The nice thing about sticking to shorter milage days is you get to have fun poking around and doing side trips. It also takes the pressure off and opens up a plan to include different interests. I can't wait to see the photos Ambika and Guru took as taking the time for photograhy also has to be budgeted into the day.

have you guys tried to upload with Firefox yet?

I can't get any pics to upload from Internet Explorer anymore (used to be able to till a few months ago...then started running into that timing out issue), but Firefox works just fine for me. thumbs up

I've been using Firefox for about 6 months now. No problems uploading pics, my only problem is using the Quote selected button and the "All" button for the smillies, still get the Hacking attempt 1 on the smillies and nothing happens on the quote button.

When the Gallery was fixed earlier this month, there was a number of corrupted but mostly empty Albums. They may have gotten borked. Sorry about that.
