February 27 - 28 Driving through Oregon, Idaho, & Utah to Colorado


Oregon ~  Idaho ~ Utah
and back to Colorado
~~Lots of Americana~~
I am fascinated by old farm houses and I saw a lot of them  
as we drove through these states.














One of my favorite photographs!

As we hit the Idaho border and John saw the speed limit sign, 
he said:   I love Idaho!"

Our view, from above,  as we drove over the bridge


I found a RED SOX Fan in Idaho.



Wow, what  great view! 
  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Utah really should have it's own page!!
 The drive through the state from the border of Idaho to the border of Colorado was 
absolutely beautiful, though most of eastern Utah was covered in clouds and fog!







The Utah Mountains ~ even on a foggy day ~ Spectacular!



Salt Lake City and The Capitol- above left
Our only glimpse of the Great Salt Lake

I never did find out what the
"Y"
on the mountain outside of
Salt Lake City stood for.







Cool view of the train tunnels



Noses?
















Want Antlers?
I still do not  know what this is doing on the range!


 The Book cliffs run from Utah all the way to Mt. Garfield in Colorado



 Following the Book cliffs to Grand Junction on I 70

Nope! Don't think so......

The Railroad tracks, The Range and the Book cliffs


The Utah Colorado border marker.  
Not a good photograph as it was quite dark but we were happy to see it ~We are back in Colorado!
