Ella is also fascinated by the flora here! Unfortunately, my memory card was full before I could get her picture with a Joshua tree or cactus. We may have to take another excursion out to the desert!
Ella thought the prehistoric rock carvings, done by the ancient Anasazi's, were awesome!! (You may have to zoom in on the photo to see them on the rock just behind her)
Most people don't realize that elephants are very agile and like to climb! Along with water & trailmix, she carried a snake bite kit in her backpack. This is the time of year when they come out to warm themselves on a nice sunny rock!
Today we had some real fun! We drove out west of town to the Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area. We did some hiking, bouldering and had a picnic! We also met some very friendly tourists who thought that Ella was very photogenic and offered to take our picture together too.
