Sun, Tree, Reflection

Zion National Park, Utah

We took a wonderful drive thru part of Zion National Park.  I LOVED this tree, there by itself with the red rocks behind.  Zion National Park is a beautiful park to drive thru, each turn is a new vista.

I have been to Zion National Park many times but never in the winter.  This time it was so beautiful with the contrasting white snow and red rock!

Frozen Waterfall

As we drove thru Zion National Park we saw this frozen waterfall.  The water had come down the mountain and just frozen.  Even though this photo is beautiful with the blue sky and mountain, now you know that it was very cold!

Snowy Fields

During the Winter, the fields are at a stand still, covered with snow, waiting for the warmth of the Spring sun that will melt the snow and awaken the ground.  On a trip to Southern Utah this past week-end, for a funeral of a dear friend, we were reminded of this.

Racing

On our way to Southern Utah, this past week-end we saw a lot of snow. Soon, there was a train next to us, so we pretended we were racing it. Of course, they didn’t know about the race, but we did win.

Love ~ Swans

While strolling around this lake in 2008, I took photos of these Swans and one of them really showed off.  Going to the other swan, they made this heart shape just for me!  Swans, who mate for life, make this heart shape when they are courting.  I LOVE IT!!

Snowy Day

Crystallized Water

This morning I looked out the window as the sun was rising and I saw beautiful crystals on my window, frozen water.  Isn’t this one cool?

Snowy Night

We went out the other evening and the snow started coming down and it didn’t stop until morning!  Not too many people were out in the bitter cold, but we were bundled up and we had a fun time!

Palms

Poipu, Kauai, Hawaii

After a nice swim, I laid on the lounge chair and looked up thru the Palm Trees and thought what a great photo that would be, so I took one!  The rainbow and colors are fun with the sun coming thru the palms!

Preparing for our Next Trip

img_0454-60North Salt Lake, Utah

I went and got my nails done as I was preparing for our next trip. I told Young, who has done my nails for a long time, to smile, so I could take a photo of my feet with her in it, she follows me on Instagram so she knew what that meant and she moved out of the photo, I told her no, I want you in it, so I got this photo of my feet with Young in it, as she giggled! This was the perfect place for me to RELAX!!

On May 10, 1869 the Union Pacific Railroad and the Central Pacific Railroad came together at Promontory Point in what was the Utah Territory and changed the future of our nation. In this photo the Union Pacific’s locomotive No. 119 is coming towards the Central Pacific’s locomotive Juniper, re-enacting the completion of the first Transcontinental Railroad.

Happy 4th of July

Our grandkiddies were having so much fun in the pool, I decided it was time to put my feet up and RELAX! (Notice my patriotic nails?)

We had a wonderful evening with friends at Hale Center Theater!  We saw BIG RIVER, it was so good, with an actual river and rain!  I had to put my feet up and RELAX before it started! 😉

I was hoping to get a photo of the Salt Lake Valley, but I was on the wrong side of the plane.  I did get this good shot, though!

Salt Lake Temple & Blossoms

The Salt Lake Temple of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints                                                               Announced – July 28, 1847    ~    Dedicated – April 6, 1893

As I toured Temple Square with my cousin and her husband, I was looking around for a nice place to take a photo of the temple with the beautiful blossoms that were all around.  This was the perfect spot!
