When we went back to the rez for my sister in-law's high school graduation, we took some pictures on our way to cortez, colorado. It's a cute, little town, but definitely not a town that i would live in. it sort of reminded me of a town that you would find in texas. some towns in texas are a little eerie for me. last year when we went for a visit to see my mother in killeen, texas we had to drive through small towns. and those towns reminded me of the movie the texas chain saw massacre. i felt very creepy and spooked to even stop in one of those towns for gas. the first gas station that we stopped at in texas they still had people smoking in the gas station! that was so weird to see. here in phx/glendale they banned smoking in restaurants and even bars! anyway, here's some pics for y'all to enjoy.

They say that this is a jail from back in the old days. this is located on the ute reservation. i don't know if this is true, but i thought it was cool to see. check out coco, she's being her nosey self as always.

The door was so darn heavy to push open!

The prisoners were held down there!

As I was taking a picture of the pit down below this freaking scared the shit out of me! it was a good thing that it was not poisonous because i was standing right next to it!

we saw this on our drive into cortez, colorado.
