Loa, Utah

Yesterday Barbara and I traveled west to the town of Loa, Utah. Along the way I took a few photos of the wonderful geology on display along the freeway. Today we took a short drive to check out the Loa countryside. Loa is a small farming town that I could walk from end to end in about 15 minutes. Not a sprawling metropolis by any means. This is a beautiful area covered by mostly volcanic rock that reminds a lot of the Yellowstone Park area.
