These were about the width of a car and the dust plumes extend quite far up. As we were driving down the dirt road (that was considered a highway) you could just see these things all around you. I've never seen anything like it. I'd like to find out (presumably by going back some day) if those are common in that area because of the weather and geography or if we saw something special. Either way, it was quite a site and made the drive worth it by itself! I should point out that these dust devils weren’t the typical ones you see in the plains.

And blues and yellows, awesome! Happy hunting in a few weeks. Mom I think it’s just so amazing that in such an arid land of dirt and dust you found any flowers. And blues and yellows, awesome!
