La La La La

Elmo and the portable DVD player were our friends on our journey through the desert. Ava is concentrating very hard on Elmo's episode about pets. The earphones were an added blessing. I didn't have to withstand the annoying Elmo's World song which would most definitely be seared into my head the rest of the day. Matt is trying to stay awake.

Green Grass to Red Rocks

On our pilage out west it was interesting to see how much the country side, from my birdseye view, changed. It went from green grass and abundant trees to a very arid, sandy region with abundant red rocks, then back to patches of grass in neighborhoods that could afford to sprinkle their lawns. I spent part of the 4 hour plane ride capturing the changing topography.
