Valley Of Fires

After flowing through Zion, the Virgin River flows close to
St George and exits to Arizona. Leaving I-15, I pulled for a rest near the River.

Carmel Junction… Murals?

The north wall of the Shell gas station in Carmel Junction is adorned with a mural. Or is it a mural? The gas and electrical boxes are part of buildings in a street scene.

Road Trip to Escalante

Today I made the trip to Escalante, stopping at Hanksville. There is a really cool gas station here – Hollow Mountain.

Another attraction in Hanksville is this “Hunt’s Wrecker Service” Ford truck.

On the road to Torrey is this concrete truck. You may remember this from one of my Project-52 images last year.

Colorado Riverway

Driving into Moab along the Colorado Riverway entrance, I stopped to make some photographs along the river. The sandstone reflected the afternoon sunlight into the canyon. Here are reflections of the sandstone canyon wall on the hood on my truck.

This was made with an iPhone 4s. The images are just fabulous.
