[Lexi_Lover]

Oh Gina! Those are SPECTACULAR! :eek: :D It looks like you had an AMAAAAZING time! :D Crayola seems to have enjoyed himself! YAY! So glad you got those pictures back!

[Karen]

[AllAmericanPUP]

wonderful pics!!! looks like he had a good time:D
beautiful place too

[wolf_Q]

Wow, beautiful photos! It's like reliving my trip all over again. It's too bad we weren't there at the same time I bet Nebo and Crayola would have liked eachother. Crayola is very handsome! Did you see my pictures? Looks like we went to a lot of the same places. :) http://petoftheday.com/talk/showthread.php?s=&threadid=84982&highlight=my+trip

[Suki Wingy]

Wow! Last night I think I made up my mind on a which state Longfellow Farms will be in and these pictures confirmed it! Even though I have never been to Utah, Crayola and Nebo convinced me to want to call it perminant home! I love the orange rock and the ghost trees! The water and the trails! Crayola, you are so handsome in that dream landscape!

[sandragonfly]

amy/nebo, yeah! I saw these before I went off to lake pillsbury. I think I had mentioned to have everyone check out your utah thread in my utah fall thread! because it was so much alike yours and thought I lost those pictures for good! :D what date did you go?? I was there from 3rd to 19th, are you sure we miss each other?

thank you everyone! yes, so, so astonishing! definitely arrange that trip again someday...and you too! :)

[Maya & Inka's mommy]

Oh my, all this breathtaking pics bring back old memories !! I was in Utah in 1984, and visit several NP's : Zion, Bryce, Grand, Natural Bridges, and several more. Thanks for sharing Gina, that part of the USA is just SOOOOOOOO beautiful!!!

[Barbara]

Aaawww-how much I love the red rocks:D

And Crayola makes it all even prettier. So much fun for him:D
