What's that you say? You're pretty sure slots are illegal in Utah? Well, not the kind I like! In fact, they thrive there, and in September I had some fun playing them. Well, okay, playing *in* them. Here's a bit of a photo essay from the Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument, some of the most amazing landscape on earth (which, not to get too political, is under grave threat from the people currently in charge in DC).

Now for some fun with slots!

Zebra Gulch turned very wet and challenging. This final photo is about the point where I turned around and stowed my camera on dry ground!

So there you have it--My idea of slots worth playing with--and protecting.
Now, back to enjoying the wilds of Maine :)

After hearing about this adventure, it is nice to see a few pictures. Too bad there aren't any of the really deep water, up to your necks. LOL.
ReplyDeleteSorry I couldn't oblige! By the time it got that deep, we had wisely gone back to leave the cameras on dry land. If only I'd had the drycase for the cell phone I use in the 10K Islands last year!
