St. George Pics

Yes, this is going back a bit but I've meant to post some since March when we were there for Spring Break.

We did some ATVing. Everyone enjoyed it. On the way back at the end of our riding around, Amy had to stop because Deveny started to fall asleep. Cyrus rode with me. We got some good speed going in places. Near the main road there were some good hills to get some air on.

There were some petroglyphs where we ATVed to. This is one of them. You can see a few more pictures of our ATVing time here.

Flowers

Okay, I do like flowers and thought I would share pictures of a couple I recently (this summer) took pictures of.

This flower is from our front flower bed. No, I don't know what it is and neither does Amy. I know it is from some bulbs I bought her but I can't remember the name of the flower.


The above picture was taken at Palo Duro Canyon. Again, we haven't been able to identify yet (though we have tried). I thought it might be a thistle of some kind but reference material at the visitor's center at Palo Duro Canyon did not have it listed and the personnel there could not identify it either. They were in abundance in June, a product of the wet weather this year.

New Star Wars Race


Well, since I'm entertaining myself here I'll post an amusing image that I can look at when visiting my blog. This is from Hawk who takes part in the Avalanche Software blog. I don't know who Hawk is (of all the creatives listed) but if I find out I'll let you know. Take a look at the blog - lots of creative contributions to enjoy (but, of course, I'm "talking" to myself so I will continue to take my own advice and visit on a regular basis).
