Photo: Bob Landham We're stunned an iPhone took this pic. ? The backstory: "Snapped this sunrise from Grand Isle State Park in Louisiana on our return home to Georgia, after our first 10 months on the road as full-time RVers," reader Bob Landham writes. "Cindy and I are living in our 22-foot camper (named Todd) pulled by a beast of a truck (named Daisy). We don't have an end date. Our kids live in Athens, Ga., Missoula, Mont., and Bellingham, Wash. Camper life is the best way to see them and this amazing country."
