YEE HAW!!!








Hello All
We have really gone to white trash since we moved to Cowboyland. For those of you who live an urban lifestyle or more sophisticated one, the above pictures are of a Demolition Derby at the Mesa County Fair.
What can I say, it was fun. Watching all those cars bang and crunch into each other. Car parts flying, engines smoking, mud flying and an occasional car fire.
The brown car in the middle of the 4th picture, an OLD Imperial won. There's alot to be said for Detroit steel as opposed to foreign pot metal cars.
What more could you want out of a Summer night?
Later,
Lauri

I love, Love, LOVE the last photo of the carnival in front of Mt. Garfield!!! Now that's a summer night! Can you print a copy of that photo? I would love to have one, if you can do that. I'm always trying to get a good shot of Mt. G, but there's always telephone poles and trucks in the way. The carnival in the foreground is colorful and active and just wonderful.
