HOLE `N THE ROCK, UTAH, U. S. A.

2005, Jan, 15 - Apr. 10
Hole `n the Rock, in the state of Utah, U. S. of A.

Normally, when I am driving, I don't make unnecessary stops.

I believe that when I am on the job I am on company time and the company wants the load at its destination as soon as possible.

Returning to Canada, on my last trip with this company, I was ahead of schedule and I took the time to stop.

I had been by her several times and my curiosity was up.

The main attraction is a 5,000 Sq. Ft. home that is carved into the base of a sandstone butte.

Situated 12 Mi. South of Moab it was originally a restaurant and dance floor for the people from Moab.

outside of the home, the garden area is festooned with souvenirs that have been donated from various points of the compass.

Above the home, carved into the cliff, is the face of FDR, a former president of the USA.
