The Porter Rockwell trail.

We managed to get in a 2 mile walk before the rain hit yesterday morning.  It's a nice trail!
Old UP railroad signage. 

The Bubbs walking all by himself.

The old Provo spur tracks are still next to the trail.

A clearer view of the tracks.

A crossing marker.

The signals are still in place.

It was a bit eerie to see an abandoned railroad line right in the city.
Iowa? Nope, Draper, Utah.

Catching up.

Hurry!

A stink bug on the trail. Skyler was yelling "Hi stinkbug" to him.

Looking North on the tracks.

The South view with Skyler checking out the rail.

Now he wanted to just walk on the tracks instead of the trail!

This suspiciously looking polygamous house had a steel dinosaur displayed along the trail.
Another crossing sign.

This was where we turned around.

Eventually, this will become a light rail line or TRAX line.  :(

Maizey dog was off leash on the way back.

Zebra! 
Emu!

One last look at one of the signals.  I can remember my Dad taking me here in probably 1982 to see the UP 3985 Challenger steam locomotive.  Kind of hard to believe this is all developed into houses now.
