Silhouetted Palms

I love silhouettes. They just have such a great look to them. I must remember to do more of them in the future.

Sand Dunes

We took the time to visit the sand dunes in the south east corner of California again while we were down there. I love all that sand. Everywhere you look you see sand. It's like the worlds largest beach.

Almost There!

Date Palms.

If you've never seen how dates are grown and harvested this could be a shock! They grow and are harvested at the tops of these date palms. It's a labor intensive process but the resulting fruit is like nothing else on this planet! So delicious. The palms are as high as a telephone pole. Huge.

More From The Camel Farm

I have been trying to post just one image from our vacation per day. I've made it over a week and it's killing me to do this. So, in order to get to the stuff I really want to share, I'm pushing things along a bit. Here are 4 images from the Camel Farm we visited.

Blue Eyes. 

Check out the eyes on this goat! They are just amazing. None of the others had these blue eyes.


Water Buffalo.

This water buffalo's hair was very coarse. Like a scrub brush. It was very friendly though. Really liked the attention.

Smile!

I'm pretty sure this goat was watching the kids with the treats but I think he just wanted me to get his best side. :)

Follow The Treats.

Every where the kids walked, the goats followed. It was pretty cute.

New Born!!

We went to the Camel Farm by Yuma to check out the exotic animals. Most of what they have are run of the mill goats and donkeys but it was fun none the less.

This goat was born only a couple of minutes before we got to the pen. The mother was still licking him clean. The kids were fascinated that it could stand and walk already.
