THE BIGGEST LITTLE CITY IN THE WORLD

I saw a RENO Large Letter

posted at Postcard Roundup and

thought this is the perfect time for my

RENO

it was already scanned and waiting in the wings.

I really like this card. You can feel the excitement of the times in the image.

THE BIGGEST LITTLE CITY IN THE WORLD
I was in RENO just for an afternoon a few years back.
I am not a gambler so it wasn't much for me.

I did buy a few post cards however.
I think that happens wherever I stop.

Been there...

Done that!

BEEN THERE, DONE THAT, Bought the Post Card

Double Arch,

Arches National Monument,

near Moab, Utah

This entire area of the U.S.A. is magnificent viewing.

It is awesome to stand in front of this Double Arch.

An amazing feeling of how small we really are.

You can walk right into it.

This is another Arch in the same National Monument.
This is Delicate Arch. It is accessible only by a frightening and dangerous hike up the backside of a mountain. Just behind us is the arch and a sheer drop; forever seems like. It may not look like it but it is scary just being there. I wouldn't have missed the experience for anything. Oh I am the cute one in the cap. And the other is my brother.

                                                           another

Jack Rabbit

Punching Cattle on a Jack Rabbit
I remember as a child back in the late 50s seeing Jack Rabbits in the fields
as we drove by on our way to family reunions in Texas.
They were almost this big.
