Interstate 70 cutting through the San Rafael Reef	View from the campground - the Devil's Garden area	Exploring Arches - we stop often for picture-taking	Mom & Dad, on Landscape Arch Trail
A Sand Wasp (Steniola)	Juniper tree	Whiptail Lizard	Fly
Landscape Arch	Sagebrush & rock (near the viewpoint for Landscape Arch)	The Old Man and the Tree	A Karen-portrait (I posed with the same tree)
On the "Park Avenue" trail	More scenery on the Park Avenue Trail	The "Three Gossips"	Dad takes a "bath" in a wash on the Park Avenue Trail
Gary, filming me	Mom, the Intrepid Explorer	La Sal Mountain Loop Road	A view of Castle Valley from the La Sal Mountains
A wild sunflower by the roadside on our way back from the La Sal Mountains	I love the beautiful sagebrush!	Arches in "The Windows" area	On the Broken Arch Trail, next morning
Pinyon Pine, with some nuts remaining in this cone	Broken Arch (the trail goes right up and through this one)	Mom & Dad pose with an ancient juniper tree on the Broken Arch return trail	Nothin' like walking around in the desert for keeping relaxed & happy!
Mating grasshoppers, on blooming Russian Thistle (aka tumbleweed)	At Klondike Bluffs - and there was a rattlesnake at my feet!	On ducking out from the juniper I looked down & was quite shocked	It was a Midget-faded Rattlesnake, & was unmoved by our noisy interest
Here's a look at its eye, and you can even see the heat-sensing pit	Its rattle was quite small, and even after harassment the snake did not shake its tail	Another look at the rattles	Gary, at Sand Dune Arch
Dragonfly, near Sand Dune Arch	Drive By Shootings (last scenery shots while leaving the park)	The switchback road down out of Arches National Park
