My grandparents spent six summers in Mongolia, and every trip the took 200+ slides, which I have been virtually archiving since my grandfather passed away last spring.

One is not enough, more are called in to the murky depths:
The goat they just cooked with a blow torch, looking a lot like the goat they just cooked with a blow torch:
