Thanks so much Lorna...
Yep, 5450 images, but I have to say, I was in a moving car for about 900 miles, so this is why... My sister in law drove us to about 12 different southern California cities... everytime she would point something out to us (I got the front seat always)- I would 'shoot'... thank God she bought me a journal so I would be able to write down what I photographed... would of been really hard to remember, lol!
I wrote 35 pages in this book!
