DAY 24


"A Pear of Plums"
6x6" Oil on Canvas Board

Hot diggity, dog diggity we made it to Vernal, Utah where dinosaurs still roam...hopefully I won't run into one in the middle of the night on the way to the ladies room.

We enjoyed another sunny day yesterday meandering along a winding country road through gorgeous canyons, rivers, streams, and mountain passes speckled with cattle grazing on the steep rocky slopes. I kept looking for the Marlboro man to come riding in on his horse across the mesas. Every now and then we'd pass through an eye-blink-of-a-little town where we actually saw a very official-looking metal roadside sign that read, "Vending Machines Ahead"... now that's a sure sign of a small town!!!

Deep Thought for the Day - Why is it that the brown M&Ms don't taste as good as the red, blue, green, orange and yellow ones?
