We were infatuated with the Hummer. Obsessed even. Every so often, I would look back at the Hummer and think, "Oh, that looks like a commercial." It always looked like the Hummer had just accomplished some incredible feat, like climbing mountains or racing along mud soaked trails. I couldn't help but take pictures. We called these pictures our Hummer Ads.
We were so infatuated with the Hummer that Husband bought one when we got home. We owned it for a whole 2 months before he realized it wasn't really for him and traded it in for his usual truck, but on this road trip, we were glad to have a big, off-roading vehicle that was totally enclosed. We could leave our stuff in the car and run off to explore.
And if we didn't have it, we wouldn't have been able to get to roads like this one.
Or this one.
Definitely not this one.
And I don't think we would have seen these elk grazing in oceanside pastures in this state park.
Well, I think it was a state park because I took this picture. And I remember we were really close to the caretaker's house, and he was out mowing his yard so we stopped and talked to him. I think he was surprised to see other people.
But I think the photo below, at a look out right before crossing the golden gate bridge, was the #1 Hummer Ad picture. You can see the dirt from our trip; it's like a badge of honor that shouts, "Hey, look at this guy. He just had an adventure."
