Antelope Island

Journaling:
Mom, Dad, and Katie came to visit me in Layton. During their visit we went out to Antelope Island. Katie elected to stay at my apartment and sleep in. I had no idea the island was as big as it is. We came across a few painted buffalo that we had to stop and take pictures of. Back in 2002, the Wasatch Front was covered with these buffalo, and we drove all over Salt Lake getting pictures taken with them. Our goal was to see them all, but we didn’t have time. It was fun to remember those buffalo and add a few more buffalo to our list. I think the buffalo to the left wasn’t part of the original “Utah Buffalo Roundup”, but it’s close enough, so we still got a picture of it. “The Hand of Man Buffalo” signifies the buffalo’s role in providing for men. The red handprints signify the buffalos near extinction, and three turquoise handprints signify the hand of man in bringing back the buffalo.
