What's In This Blog

I created this blog for my journal. I am a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. In this blog I keep many of the things I come across as a member of the church. I also share my experiences on the ACE Train and getting to work, my experiences in Manteca where we have lived for three years, and other things I think are noticeable.

Burro Creek Campground Is off Highway 93 (to be the new I-11)

 We spent a nice night at Burro Creek Campground.  The campground is between the Sonoran and Mohave deserts and has fauna from both deserts.  I wanted to explore more but kept running into fences which went around the campground.  I did see the desert garden and came upon a lizard.

Me on the Chuckwalla in Kingman

 There is a large chuckwalla statue in Kingman.  A chuckwalla is a lizard reaching 12-18 inches with the tail that lives in the desert around Kingman.  This chuckwalla has a metal frame and is made of concrete with bronze and Italian glass.  It is sculpted by Solomon Bassoff and Domenica Mottarella (Faducci).  I have tried to do a sefie but it never worked, but was lucky to have someone take the picture.
