Wild Burros

November 13 to November 14

Monday (the 14th) was a busy day. Ed and I got up early, did the usual stuff and then headed
over to the timeshare where Chris, Tina and David are staying — nice unit. Our destination was
Red Rock Canyon just to the west of Las Vegas. There is, of course lots of red rock there hence
the name. The 13 mile scenic drive was great, with some very outstanding views. Just before we
reached the park exit, we saw wild burros on the side of the road and stopped to take pictures. A
couple of burros were very brave (or we were just in their path) and walked up to our car ... those
teeth were very big!

Next stop wasOld Nevada Bonnie Springs .... a tourist trap started in the early 1950's, located just outside of
Red Rock Canyon. Nevada City is a western town with horse back riding, a train, hangings,
shootout, and much more. Unfortunately, Monday seemed to be a very quiet day and we didn't
get to see any of the "events".
