More Outings on the Quad

Been on the quad a few times now, getting to know the area...the area around town is so beautiful!  This time I remembered to bring a camera!  Went out on my own the last time, but not really, I took Rielly with me, hooked up her booster seat to the back seat and off we went!

The Penstock



Rock formations really beautiful

Ride finished for today, but oh my what a helmet does to a gal's hair!

Buchans had/have an Air Base, who knew?
 Here are some of the over 60 pictures I took of my day.  The country around here is beautiful, so much of it not touched, Buchans was built surrounding a Mine, well a few mines actually, underground and open pit, so nature has be disturbed but the mines have been closed, the last mine closed in 1984...so a lot has grown over.

There used to be a Air Base here, I didn't know about that, it is about a mile long and has two strips, it's not used now but you could definitely use it if you needed to!

Many more trips to come and you can bet more pictures!
