Thompson Springs | Utah


Antelope!  They seem to wander around near the train tracks in this little community.  They were a little shy, but they did pose long enough for me to get this shot.

This hotel has seen it's best days, although when I was there taking this photo, two men were peeking in the windows at the mess inside.  They told me they were thinking of making it a little hotel again for tourists.  I hope they love lots of hard work!


Considering the age of this car, it doesn't look all that bad......    This was right outside the RV Park I stayed at. 


This one didn't fare so well......  But it's older!



Schoolhouse built in 1907, nicely refurbished.



There are multiple abandoned and derelict buildings here.


Spooky on an overcast day.



I have no idea if it's true, but someone said this is the café that was in the movie "Thelma and Louise".  Looks way more interesting inside than outside!


Other buildings are just shells.

I'm not really fond of the purple color here.......


One of the residents has yard that looks more like a mini-museum - he had everything back here.

 
Mountains look like they are melting into plains here.  


Rocks are multicolored here.  I think I remember someone telling me that the green rocks have copper in them.


A restaurant, show place was nearby, but unfortunately it was all closed up and looking abandoned.



The weather did this a few days while I was here, but only got a few sprinkles one day.


This is the third Boot Hill that I've seen.  I don't think this one has anyone really there. 


Red rock is everywhere near Moab, and it is stunning.
