Our Get-A-Way to Torreon

We took a ride up to Show Low in the Corvette and stayed in the cabin for a couple of days.  We took a drive on Friday and I enjoyed taking a few pictures with my new camera lens. 

There wasn't really much snow left on the ground. As we were driving I saw from the road the stream and snow. Steve turned around so I could hike in a little ways for these pictures.


This is an old cattle holding pen and chute that is by the turnoff to Sunrise ski resort. We pass it on one of our favorite drives so this time Steve stopped for me once again so I could shoot my pictures. I love the old western wooden structures that are sadly disappearing from our landscape.




It is hard to photograph horses but at least now I can stay far enough away that I don't move the horses off and still get pictures with my new lens.

We had a relaxing few days. We went to our favorite breakfast restaurant, Darbies,saw the Hunger Games movie without the crowds,took our drive and chilled at the cabin! Of course we ate  Mackey's Grill in Payson on the way up and back. Good times,noodle salad!

Love the pictures. I, too, love to see the disappearing western relics of days gone by. Sounds, and looks, like a fun weekend.
