After our vintage car journey this morning Carlo and I headed into Idaho for the place where Lake Bonneville burst 12,500 years ago and drained the lake. Red Rock Pass where a huge torrent of water swept through the break in the mountains and devastated everything in front of it. At that time Salt Lake City would be under over 1000 ft of water.

Thre is a railway track just across the road from Carlo and Sidne's house n Mendon. There is only 1 train a day uses it and it crawls along at about 20 mph. I manage to catch it this morning. In the afternoon we walked part of the line and it's no wonder the train travels so slow as it is in a very poor condition and just a matter of time before the train comes of the rails.
