A few more of my train trip photos........these were taken from the middle of the Nevada Dessert on Friday night into saturday afternoon on that weekend.

Here we are (Rob and I and a few others) watching a movie on my laptop in the sightseer lounge car...we pretty much camped out in that car all of late friday night and into early saturday morning. Photo taken 230am...on the 28th of May Posted by Hello

My first saturday photo...of Eastern Utah. I had just gotten up and it is probably about 7am in the morning and we are coming into some of the most awesome cliffs and lower mountians of eastern Utah. The night before we had trained down Utah from Salt Lake City which was early in the morning and it was Dark so I didnt get to see Salt Lake....oh well. Still enough ahead.....Sat, May 28, 2005  Posted by Hello

Rob decided I wasnt worthy of a good picture...in the background are two of my other traveling buddies...George and Dale (late morning on Saturday as we are training through Utah) Posted by Hello

Two of my wonderful new friends that I met just after boarding in Sacremento. Jerry and Arnie...a couple who are taking an anniversary train trip given to them by their children. They are on their way back home to Alton Ill. I will remember them fondly...in fact since being back, we have communicated with each other via email a few times.... this was taken May 28th 2005-saturday morning as we are training through Utah heading east towards Colorado Posted by Hello

So...my friends Jerri and Arnie (prior photo) gave me an orange...and I just had to get a photo of it..so my friend Rob helped me pose it..that is the back of his head...whos crazy here??? Posted by Hello

I thought this rock formation was kind of cool looking...almost looks like an animal face (or maybe a dinasour fossil buried in the rock??)Sat May 28, 2005 in SE Utah Posted by Hello
