Thanks for all the nice comments.Thanks Junior. For the most part it was just my D80 with a 18-105mm Nikon lens. I think the only one I used a different lens with was the beer one. That was my Nikon f1.8 lens. When I fly I bring a cheap 30 dollar tripod with me that I can collapse and fit in my carry on easily.IPT - Funny thing about the train wheel, My friend in New York saw my pics and works for the railroad and told me to be very careful in train yards like that because all of those cars may not be moving but they are free rolling and 2 guys died up in NY last week by getting smashed my trains.Wolverine - I don?t like going to SLC. My work gets travel happy every spring and I usually fly out 3 or 4 times. Its really not the traveling part I dislike, and I actually enjoy SLC. It just so happens that they frequently send me on tues and wed (my days off) making long weeks for me. Squatters is wonderful I go there every time im there. The food is wonderful too. And there is no way I would ever actually go to that jbs lol.
