Going Back In Time...

Way back in February, Rae and I went to Arizona for a week to visit Mom and Dad. Now that it's nearly time to go again...I'm ready to post a few pictures from that trip.

On the way down we visited the Hoover Dam and the Mike O'Callaghan - Pat Tillman Memorial Bridge.



We had a lot of fun on the trip. We didn't see too many animals or birds, but I did get a few shots of this California Quail and this Turkey Vulture.







We also took a trip to Palm Canyon, where the only naturally growing Palm Trees in the State of Arizona grow. It was a bit of a hike but well worth it! (If you ever go, don't forget you need to be there around noon to have the best light on the trees.) Here are a few shots of that. The first is a shot of the Palm Trees, next a shot looking out across the Desert from the mouth of Palm Canyon.




We visited Quartzsite and the Hi Jolly Gravesite...Interesting Story...


And the London Bridge in Lake Havasu Arizona, where I got these shots of Mom and Dad and Rae on the "Telly"...






Enjoyed some beautiful sunsets...


Then on the way home, we visited the Valley of Fire in Nevada...Beautiful!!
