Twin rocks at Twin Rocks Cafe

We couldn't resist stopping in for lunch at the very appropriately named 'Twin Rocks Cafe' during our road trip exploring amazing Utah, USA in 2015. The food was good, though we were just hoping one of those gigantic rocks didn't come crashing down !
Location is at Bluff, a small community at the junction of Hwy.191 and 163, not too far from the stunning buttes and mesas of Monument Valley and many other classic desert landforms. One of my favourite areas in the world.
Contemporary cars (right to left) include:
Jeep Liberty, Chrysler Neon, Toyota Camry XV50, Dodge Avenger/Stratus, ??, white lwb Ford Econoline van, blue Ford F150 supercab pickup, ?
Any comments welcome.
