Those of you with kids know that you have photo albums filled with pictures of your children and one adult--because there's always that one person in charge of recording family history. In Mark's family it was his father--in our family it's me. So here is a shot that actually shows I'm along for the ride. This is a giant tree that grew down on both sides of the road and you can drive a car through it. The tree is called a strangler fig because it looks like a huge knot of vines that are covering another tree, but it's actually just one tree (botany lesson courtesy of Cameron). The road heads up toward the trail head for climbing Mt. Meru and was pretty brutal, involving crossing a rather big stream with the car. Growing up in rural Montana, I'm used to tough roads and logging trails, but my 4x4 experience is pretty limited, until now!
