Days 13 and 14


The final two days covers the trip from Ogden, UT to Kingman, AZ to home.

Utah has apparently not had much rain, either. As we were driving south, the hills to the west were brown, while those to the east were green. Curious!
The southwestern portion of Utah includes Cedar City and St George. In the latter, there is a Mormon church, sort of like one of the temples, but smaller and less ornate.
A stately building! There's a golden eagle perched on the top of the dome.
This was taken from inside the car, so there are some reflections, but you can see the craggy hills, kind of. They were really high, with narrow canyons here and there. This was north of Las Vegas, descending about 4,000 feet to the flats of LV area.

For those that are not familiar, this is a Joshua tree. There are hundreds along the Joshua Tree Scenic Parkway, which is part of rte 93 from I-40 to Wickenburg.

That's it. Home is always a good place for a return. Hope you enjoyed seeing our trip reports.
