The Icy Road Home

We stopped for a photo of a snow covered cactus because it seemed to be such a contrast.  We were surprised to see a tiny little bird "dancing" around on the cactus and rocks.  (Can you see him?)  We couldn't decide if he was jumping for joy or had freezing feet!

This being a part of the old Route 66, we were not surprised to find this old, old gas station.  It of course has turned into a tourist trap - which was closed because of the weather.  Be it still gave us the gift of a few photos:

Bonnie and Clyde drove one of these, yes?                                      Might be, because this is a cop car!

A bit farther down the road and I had to turn around for this beautiful picture.

The sun had warmed things up just enough to cause a bit of melting 

which instantly froze into icicles.

Take a few steps to the left and this was our last shot of the day.
