Colorado
Allison attempts to meet some of the local residents, but unfortunately finds no one at home. West portal of the Eisenhower tunnel.

Four Corners

Allison visited the Four Corners on Thursday, June 12.

Allison's first foray into Utah was at the Four Corners. Allison strategically places herself at the epicenter of the Four Corners. Allison  showed interest in photography for the very first time while at the Four Corners Monument, where she captured this image.
Welcome to Arizona Welcome to New Mexico The Four Corners Monument.

Glenwood Canyon
A true engineering marvel.

Arizona
"Are we there yet?"

Hoover Dam

Nevada
Welcome.

Las Vegas
The skyline of Las Vegas!

Las Vegas Hilton
The Las Vegas Hilton and "The Strip" beyond. We're checked in, so the next logical stop after the front desk is the pool. "Come on!  Let's go!" ...and don't forget the sunscreen.

Benihana
Gerber didn't make strained pineapple as good as this, that's for sure. Allison becomes acquainted with what she now considers alternate eating utensils.

Bellagio

The "Fountains of Bellagio" were quite the sight.
The view to the place across the street named for some city in France, we think.

Circus Circus
Allison dressed to hit the town... ...and play the "quarter machines" at Circus Circus.

Utah

 

 

 
 
Near Boulder.

National Parks

Mesa Verde

Grand Canyon
Allison first encountered the Grand Canyon through the East entrance.

El Tovar
Allison arrives at the El Tovar. You won't find Allison running up and down the hallways of your next hotel.
All checked in, Allison checks the view. Okay - the canyon is this deep... ...and this wide. Allison pauses for a refreshment on the El Tovar patio.
