While not exactly "Bishop," this first set covers our trip through Lone Pine on the way to Bishop. It was the first time my family had been in this area of gorgeous desert despite my 8 years of migrating there to run the Wild Wild West Marathon.

	Every year I pass this boulder on the way to the start line of the WWW so I thought I would take the fam and see how "unique" desert people are.
	A closer pic of (l-r) Alex, Fat Boulder Creature, Stephanie, and me looking like I'm standing on the cheek of an enormous creature.
	*This is what the Fat Boulder Creature sees. That I'm actually consider "it's" view is very disturbing to me.*
	Carrie got into the action while the kids crawled around. I don't exactly know how you are supposed to stand when posing with a Fat Boulder Creature but this is what Carrie came up with.
	Another view of where we stopped. It was about 90 degrees and the wind was blowing. The desert was gorgeous just like the woman standing in the foreground.
	Stephanie and Alex pose for a desert picture. We had only been out there five minutes and you can see how it started to affect Alex. Now multiply that by years and you can start to understand Fat Boulder Creature.
	Carrie and I happy to be together in the desert. Why she is pinching my fat, I don't know but we're happy nonetheless.
	Steph hung around the Fat Boulder Creature a little longer and ....
	.... insisted on getting this picture. Obviously the desert got to her also.
	We headed all the way to the start line of the Wild Wild West where I showed my family where the pain started every year.
	This was a golden opportunity to get the picture I always get but which I forget to get two weeks ago.
