Stuck in a hole and thrashed about as if in a washing machine. Usually not fun!

Tossing and turning of a raft in a river hydraulic, as if caught in the spin cycle of a washing machine. Also called a "Swirly".

Rock art in Buckhorn Wash in the San Rafael Swell, just north of the San Rafael River

Buckhorn Wash is located in the San Rafael Swell about twenty miles north of I-70 (exit 131) on a well maintained, graded dirt road. This site features a long wall covered with Native American rock art that has been restored by the BLM and partners to its historical condition (meaning, they removed the vandalism caused by stupid people) and they really did a great job with it.

From the BLM website: Once the scene of outlaw chases, Buckhorn Draw, a long, steep-walled canyon, is the main northern gate-way to the San Raphael Swell. A canyon highlight is the interpreted Buckhorn Draw Native American rock art site, where BLM has built an interpretive area. These striking figures were restored as Emery County's Utah Centennial Project in 1996.

Buckhorn Wash rock art includes pictographs and petroglyphs made by prehistoric cultures. Pictographs are painted onto the rock, as opposed to petroglyphs, which are pecked into the rock. The BLM brochure quotes Schaafsma (The Rock Art of Utah, Univ. of Utah): these may be "pictures of shamans experiencing symbolic death and at times transformations, probably into a supernatural or animal form..."

centennial arch

rock island centennial bridge, connecting davenport, iowa and rock island illinios. opened in 1940.

i can't be 100% sure, but i think this may be the bridge used by jack kerouac, which he later wrote about in his book "on the road".

"...and, though I'm not much of a driver, drove clear through the rest of Illinois to Davenport, Iowa, via Rock Island. And here for the first time, I saw my beloved Mississippi River, dry in the summer haze, low water, with its big rank smell that smells like the raw body of America itself because it washes it up. Rock Island - railroad tracks, shacks, small downtown section; and over the bridge to Davenport, same kind of town, all smelling of sawdust in the warm mid-west sun."
