The Moon from 30,000 feet

Houston Texas to Salt Lake City, Utah

There was a gorgeous sunset as we flew from Houston, Texas to Salt Lake City, Utah back in 2008.  It is hard to believe that it was 10 years ago.  Lots has changed in the world since then, but the sky, beautiful as it is, remains the same.

Hot Air Balloons

In 2007, while staying at our cabin, I walked out on our deck and looking way down into the Heber Valley, I could see a Hot Air Balloon flying by.  Can you see it?  That is Mount Timpanogos in the background.

Bald Eagle

Farmington Bay, Utah

My friend, Pam & I went out to Farmington Bay, back in 2007.  We saw lots of Bald Eagles that day.  As we were crossing a bridge, all of a sudden, there were a bunch of Bald Eagles who flew out from under it.  This Eagle fell into the water, as it was hit by some of the other Eagles, in their panic.  It swam, using it’s wings like arms, to the side and after a little while it took off, with water dripping off of it.  It was fascinating to watch!
