Week of June 14th, 2004

After driving through Zion and Brice National Parks we stopped in a small town in Utah by the name of Boulder.  A quaint town and everyone friendly.  I spotted this old uncared for home and snapped it.

On our way towards Capital reef National Park we came upon a heard of cows being herded from one pasture to another.  There were two cowboys on horseback and at their urging we were finally able to continue on our way.

A view of Capital Reef from the roadway.

Passing through Kansas we stopped in a small town by the name of Bird City.  This picture is of their City Hall.

The Hartland of America, the thriving plains of wheat.

This picture was taken in Lebanon, Kansas and was also featured in the May, 2004 issue of the National Geographic Magazine.  Of note is the interesting way in which the center of the US was determined.  A balancing point of a map of the US of equal density was used, clever!
