An Afternoon in the Desert

One of the teepees in the teepee camp I stumbled across.

Took the new (used) Jeep out into the desert yesterday...just dirt roads...nothing 4WD...don't want to hurt the baby. Note to self: do not take your new car, top off, out somewhere dusty, especially with the wind blowing. I got the car clean again, but wow, what a process.

Came across this little teepee camp (this is off 16 Road*, out of Fruita). Not sure who built/uses it, but I thought it was pretty cool.

Hope everyone is enjoying their weekend! :)

*The names of the roads in this area are cool. North/South roads are numbered based on miles from the Utah border. (16 road is 16 miles in from Utah). Then you get 16 1/2 Road, 16 3/4 Road, etc. East/West roads are letters. But these also get fractions, so you end up with E 1/2 Road, R 7/8 Road, etc. Quirky. Unique. Love it.
