Torrey Utah

Diana, Murphy and I drove to Torrey yesterday afternoon; met Lisa and Sean and Brodie and are looking forward to a very relaxing 3 days here!  We stopped at the RimRock Cafe to eat - it was late and the moon rose as we were finishing up.  Moonlight on the desert is sheer delight!
On the way down, just after leaving the little town of Bicknell we spotted two young bucks in a field and two Sandhill Cranes in the same field!  Managed to get a shot of each. What a delight to see them so close to humanity - the cranes.  At the Rimrock, talking to the manager, he said they had been just outside in the pond behind the rimrock yesterday!  Hummingbirds were coming to the feeder just outside the window at the restaurant, a wonderful companion to our dinner.
