She's been volunteering on a project monitoring prairie dogs in Grasslands National Park since March. They provided board and lodging in exchange for her work. (Which is valuable for her cv as she wants a career in conservation)

Now she has the pleasure part of her trip. She is joins a Trek America tour of the USA on Friday which finishes in NYC at the end of next month.

The route:

Then she'll have spent all her savings and comes home!

Someone just sent me a link.
Michael Jackson's molestation case has been un sealed.
Boy, lots of child porn found at Neverland ranch.
That didn't shock me. But apparently he also had a collection of animal torture videos.
That was one sick puppy!

Daughter has boarded her flight in Calgary where US immigration pre-clears passengers, so she gets to avoid the passport control queues at LAX - result :)

She doesn't land until after midnight our time, so I have to try to go to sleep and check my messages tomorrow!
