...Grand Teton National Park! This picture - sorry for the only partial upload of the image - was taken on top of Signal Mountain and shows Mt. Moran and Jackson Lake. It was there that I probably felt the most touching feelings: everything was perfect. The view, the breeze, the sun, the place. That was "my" place...

And finally, a lonesome tree, standing in the plain under a perfect Wyoming sky. A symbol, and my gift to all the lonely travellers that span the globe in search of themselves. Thanks for sharing my journey in the land of Ennis and Jack.
