Zion National Park, UT

Just after taking this picture this seemingly harmless *snowmelt* waterfall got windswept and what seemed to be forever it soaked us just like we jumped in a lake! Needless to say we didn't have a problem with being hot on the way back..

Court Of The Patriarchs

Lots of cactus flowering

Zion National Park, UT

Road to Zion National Park

Good thing to remember!

OK, I grew up seeing the Old Man of the Mountain in the White Mountains in NH. Maybe it just me but I see a monkey face in this mountain.... Maybe too much allergy medicine...

This is on the Weeping Rock trail looking at the Virgin River

This is going to be one of the places where I just cant get a photo to describe what we see.. Its just unbelievable.

Lake Havasu City, AZ

The London Bridge Lake Havasu City, AZ

This is the actual London Bridge that was sinking into the river Thames when the city decided to sell it to the founder of Lake Havasu City. It was disassembled and shipped and reassembled over the channel in Lake Havasu. We thought it was just a replica but its not. So its the tourist attraction other than the lake.

Looks like a tropical island until you see the desert..

Channel along Lake Havasu where the power boat crowd shows off their fast boats and their bikini bow ornaments..

Tucson, AZ

Our campsite in the desert

Flowering cactus

Saguaro National Park, Tucson,AZ

Huge rainbow over Tucson. It was allot bigger when we were still in the city but an impressive view up there

Sonora Desert Museum and Saguaro National Park,--Tucson,AZ

Doesn't look all that friendly... Look at the size of those teeth!

Probably just ate someone and going in for a nap.

View in the park overlooking the desert.

Why do people dehydrate in the desert? We found these every few hundred feet.. Magic cold water comes out!

Go ahead Deb, climb that pole..

Deming, NM

Sunset at the desert campground in Deming. Just happen to catch the horse riding by with the sunset.

Deming,NM

I just don't know but this was hanging at the entrance... Gotta love the 50% off ;-)

A little creepy?

Garfield?

This is a I think a rock garden? It was a maze path with all kinds of little trinket stuff that people must have donated as they pass through the campground.

Breaux Bridge, LA

We are using our new Passport America discount club (50% off) to find gems like this place that you would not likely pick out of a guide. Its a well run place with 5 fishing lakes that you can use while there price included and the sites backed right up to the water.

Beaumont, TX

Crawfish Etoufee at Floyds, Yes this blog is all about us eating :-)

I think is going to be our regular hangout while visiting Beaumont as we are both Texas brisket addicts...
