Thanks everyone for the photos! It has been a busy summer for me, and I did not get to make it down this year. I enjoyed living vicariously through you and your stories.

Passing through Flagstaff on the way to the AZ Strip I saw this banner at a convenience store, the let me have it after explaining what the Expo was, they didn't even know it was hanging outside their store. I had people I traveled with sign it, sorry I missed a few people though.

Yes - Mormon Lake Lodge kindly distributed a few of those for us, sadly without confirming that the official Overland Expo brew is, well, not Coors Light.

The sell Overland Expo decals on their site but there do not seem to be any OX12-specific decals. There were OX12 patches though.

Yoga at Expo?
For those of you who didn't see us right up near the front .. you CAN go on adventure in a regular car! Here is my Subi all set-up in Valley of the Gods on our way down to Expo from SLC:
It's been a really great way to travel simply and surprisingly has a lot of space inside!
I was down at Expo teaching the Yoga for Overlanders course - thanks to everyone who joined in. We had a blast getting out all the kinks from driving and riding all day long. Almost everyone was new to yoga. In addition to the courses we had morning yoga as well. Here are a couple snap shots ..
If you missed out you can get all the good info on YOGA for OVERLANDERS here: http://www.alyssasummers.com/yoga-for-overlanders/
These are my top 4 tricks to nixing the aches and pains, saving your back and shoulders — getting back to the body you know and love so you can really enjoy the journey, live a richer experience, and have more fun!
And we can't forget some OvX classics :: Kristian (upcruiser), Walt, and Doug :wavey:
