Hey... We're Horny in Utah Too! (by Dan)

If that headline doesn't get your click, nothing will!

Not to be outdone by our neighbors to the south... South as in Arizona, Toby found a Horny Toad while on our trip with Grandpa and Collin out to Topaz mountain.

The trip was both a success and a miserable failure in that we caught a bunch of lizards (and a horny toad) but we came home with zilch in the Topaz Crystal department.

We ended up bringing home 3 lizards (2 of which bit me!) and some fun memories. Toby and Grandpa tried to catch a blue belly lizard by the tail, which if you don't know, pops right off when you grab it and sits there twitching on the ground! Toby and Collin just thought that was great, they got a real kick out of being lizard chasers, lots of fun for Pam down the road I'm sure ;)

They are out of focus phone snaps, but here are a few photos of Toby, Collin and Horny for your enjoyment.

Horny and Collin!
Horny!
Horny and Toby!

When I was a kid living in Nephi, we would catch horny toads all the time - I loved them!!!

How fun, I've always wondered how those lizards lose their tails, so weird.

I love Horny Toads!! It's about the only kind of reptile I will actually touch.
