Along the Utah Road

I thought I would share with you the sites we see while traversing the back roads of Utah. We have taken many a dirt road not knowing where it will lead us or what we will see..... but we have never been disappointed.
First the Spring Flowers. Utah is in bloom and the wildflowers are just beautiful. I have had a bouquet of fresh flowers on my dinning table every day.

We frequently share the road with all manner of people and critters. There is a lot of "Open Range" in Utah. Here is a picture of what we see most frequently. Cowboys, their cattle dogs and their cattle moving from one pasture to another.

Here is an old cemetery we found. There were graves dated in the 1800's and few from the early 1900's. Of note and interest to us was the wooden turnstile gate at the entrance.

Utah is also experiencing a sharp rise in oil and natural gas drilling like Pa. Meeting up with an 18 wheeler on a dirt road in the middle of nowhere is common. Many of the beautiful hills and valleys are dotted with these monstrosities.

Now for a happy picture.... Lukas update.... just monkeying around...
