CONTEST: How many pictures will we take?


At the end of our six-month odyssey, how many pictures do you think we will have taken?

You have until through Valentine’s day, exactly one month only a few days away, to submit your guess as a comment on this post. If you submit multiple guesses, we’ll consider only your final one. 
What will you win? An 8x10 autographed glossy print of the picture we think best represents the trip.  Curious to see what this picture will be?  Then submit your guess today! 

NOTE: Our camera now has a lazy eye.  Will it make it ‘till the end of the trip?  That’s all part of the speculative fun.
PROMISE: I swear we won’t read them until the end of the trip so that we won’t be biased.
CLARIFICATION: This is the total of pictures taken on both our camera and our iPhone.  Videos count as one picture.

  1. I am afraid to post my guess because it is so nearly accurate (if you can put those two adjectives together) others might steal what I consider my intellectual property.

    Can I put my answer in escrow until SAINT Valentine's Day?

    And I do emphasize SAINT, Jack.

    Since the Packers were one and done this year, I'm being nasty and waiting till the last minute, after perusing all the other guesses, to put in my guess of 8666 for the pictures.

  7. Lori has treacherously guessed 8667...this is pretty low, she's purloined my property (intellectually speaking)

  8. Knowing that no one can possibly take this many pictures in 6 months I'll go for 10802.

  9. Steve, Lori's treachery continues...she guesses 11,000...I hope I am not up, bleary-eyed at midnight...trying to outguess you...feverishly punching inflated numbers into the computer.

    BTW, is it midnight Pacific time, or what? NFL Rules Committee hasn't weighed in yet.
