No pics, yet. Hopefully by evening.

Hi everyone.  This is the first internet access I've had in a while.  We are now in Ankang, a few hundred kilometers north of Yichang and Dalaoling, our first stops.  For some reason, I cannot upload very many pictures tonight.  I will try in the morning.

Until then, in the interest of providing everyone an update, I'm going to just add what prose I can.  Once I can upload some pictures, I will do so and then update these initial blogs.  We will leave for another site with many chestnut early tomorrow morning.  As long as I have internet access there, I will continue to add more entries.  Thanks for your interest in our trip!
