Riding the quads

Monday we went out by Columbus, Nebraska, about 2 hours away from Omaha.  we road around on the quads.  it was so fun.  such a different landscape than the rocks and cactus of AZ.  the trails were in the bottom of a river that they've damned up.  so everywhere you go was sand.  There were trees and flowers everywhere.  you would ride through a path in the shade of all these trees.  i kept slowing down to admire the different flowers, shapes of leaves, and strange birds that I've never seen.  i guess its the bio girl in me that gets so awe struck by the life i see around me.  unfortunately, i never took my camera out on the quads, so i didn't get any pics of all this stuff.  just of us up by the camping grounds.  the first time i went out with Alex.  he didn't seem to care that i was on the back and I'm pretty sure i got whiplash.   the sand can get kind of bumpy, and i almost fell off like 5 times.  good thing Alex was wearing the helmet.  Brigg's kept getting stuck in the sand cause he had a little quad.  it was funny trying to watch him get out of it.
