Imagine this ? 5 friends, a Durango and 9500 miles! A 37-day road trip! These five college kids are challenging themselves with this adventure in order to encourage people to ?Live Out Loud?. Find out more about their journey at www.thedurangodrifters.yolasite.com.

Reading about this project made me wonder what kind of tent I would get if it were up to me. I do believe I discovered the ideal one. It?s the absolutely incredible Normal 0 1 Axis & 3 Zulu 13 person combo family camping tent. This cool modular tent system is made up of a center section and 3 attachable pod tents. The middle tent is a free standing screen house that provides a huge living area. It is an amazing 24 feet long, 10 feet wide and ? get ready for it ? 9 feet tall. I love tall tents! This space is so big that you could even play Twister in it. Each of the three pods is a separate free standing 3 person tent that can be attached to the main tent or not depending on your needs. I think that, even though these kids are best friends, the importance of the sense of privacy that the pods offer will be paramount as the trip progresses. Picture this ? it?s been a long day on the road, you?ve just pull into the perfect spot at the Park, you assemble the tent(s), fire up the camp stove, have a great dinner and, as dusk approaches and the mosquitoes emerge, you can all pile in to the bug free zone of the screen house and relax, laughing, telling stories and sharing hopes and dreams of the future. Then imagine snuggling into your sleeping bag and drifting off to sleep while nature sings you a soft lullaby. Heaven ? it sure doesn?t get any better than this! Oh, I think I just talked myself into getting a Normal 0 1 Axis & 3 Zulu 13 person combo family camping tent for myself! Can you picture yourself in one? Come and see the details here.

Red Columbine - Aquilegia formosa is one of my favorite wild flowers - the colors are very strong and I find the shape nice to look at.

By now, most Netflix subscribers have seen the news, and it's not good. Depending on your plan and how you use the service, rates are going up by as much as 60 percent. The big change is that streaming video is being removed from the company's original DVD-by-mail programs. Instead, if you want streaming video you'll need to pay for a separate $7.99 per month subscription. While the cost of the disc-only plans are going down a little as well, the net result for someone, for example, on the current 1-disc-at-a-time program that also uses Netflix streaming will be an increase from $7.99 to $15.98 per month, or from $9.99 to $17.98 for those who also have access to Blu-ray Discs. Nice.

I loved the light in this shot. It's really hard to show on a small image, but on a larger image (where you can see detail), it's cool. The only real colour is the red "deactivated" sign.
