Twenty Years (Or so) Later

Same spot way out in the Desert.
The rock hasn't changed much.

First Jeep

Last Jeep

Is the second one the last Jeep or just the most recent?

The position of some of the rocks on the upper talus slopes have changed

Current, most recent...!

20 years is a great span for this, wishing another 20 for you and your jeep

Pretty cool Craig! The look of the Jeeps has hardly changed in 20 years. What other car manufacture could have a vehicle where one from 20 years ago looks almost identical to a new Jeep. It looks like your old one was missing the top? And I bet your new Jeep is much more advanced inside of it. The console it probably quite a bit different now.

The rock and the jeep hasn't changed much but the light sure has. Nice pair of images Craig.

That first Jeep was great, two door, bikini top. Quite spartan. Made you feel part of the experience, especially when a desert squall would blow in.

The Jeeps today, they have everything. And cost almost four times as much unfortunately.

It was sheer coincidence last Sunday I was way out there and the sun was going down when I remembered that first picture as I was passing that rock. So I had to stop! The light was perfect.

Much better camera (I think that was a Canon p&s) and hopefully skills had improved a bit...

The quality of the 2nd photo is definitely way better then the first!
