Being silly - a photo on Flickriver

Being silly

            The forecast for this morning wasn't very promising so we decided to stick close to the car. Moab is famous for dinosaur fossils so we wanted to check them out. We went to Mill Canyon to see the Dinosaur Trail - we bounced along a short rutted dirt road with sandy washes - glad we had the Outback. The trail itself was ok but not as good as we expected. There were many signs describing what we were looking at but you really need a vivid imagination to actually see the fossils. After that we decided to head out to the Fisher Towers, reached on Utah 128, a very scenic road that heads NE out of Moab toward Castle Valley and Colorado. Fisher Towers were great but we knew we were not going to have much of a sunset (when the Towers turn bright red) so we checked out some of the side roads in the area. Great choice. The first stop was a boat launch on the Colorado River. Great views and the clouds were ideal for HDR shots. Next stop was near the Onion Creek (?) Road. We found an equine trail and Heather darted off to a nearby rise for a better view. Another great choice. By then the wind was picking up, the temps dropping, so we decided to head to the Moab Brewery for the chicken wings happy hour. Not a bad day at all!

I took these photos in early March 2020.
