After a refreshing break in Salt Lake City and a change of scenery to Temples, Tabernacles and concrete jungles it was time to get back to the colours of autumn and the wide open spaces that grace vast areas of America. Scenic highways abound around here and I do not think I would ever tire of the views that stretch for miles with the mountains and the Aspen trees in all their autumn/fall* (*delete as appropriate) glory, shimmering and fluttering in the breeze with a beautiful blue sky back drop. Alas, the Aspen covered mountains cannot go on forever and eventually, further east and south, they give way to ragged, dry, desolate, slightly barren, cliffs and canyons. This is Indian country and with that comes a greater history and areas of long ago habitation. (It also comes with more dirt roads and lots of dust!).
