Ibex and zion

 first there are dutch moonscapes, then there is ibex, on the shore of a desolate lakebed in western Utah, a place to hunt for trilobites.



Ibex is a climbing destination in the west desert.












 the museum in Delta offered many varieties of trilobites, and a room where the rocks glowed in the dark.





 then there is Zion, traditionally thought of as a place of refuge, that is Zion is the city of peace where the pure in heart live. new goal: work in a gas station on the freeway for a month. Or perhaps a series of gas stations. Once I decided this, I started treating the people working at the rest stops a little differently...how did you get to work here?  Where are you from? Who chooses the music?
