Red Bridge

Snake River, Wyoming

As we drove thru Wyoming we saw this pretty, fun, Red Bridge that appeared out of nowhere.  It really stands out with the greenery around it.

Hawk in Nest

Palisades Reservoir, Idaho

While traveling to Jackson Hole, Wyoming we saw a nest with a Hawk in it on top of a pole.  We got out to take photos.  As I was taking photos another Hawk flew over the nest and then the two Hawks started talking to each other.  It was so cool!

Added Beauty

Afton, Wyoming

From what I can tell this is a butterfly because butterflies have a bulb at the end of their antennas and moths do not.  The flowers around the  Star Valley Wyoming Temple were so pretty and this one with a butterfly on it, well, it just added to it’s beauty!

Camera used:  Canon 50D

As I was floating on the Great Salt Lake, I saw a Seagull flying past me, so I quickly took this photo, so fun!

Over the Mountains

IMG_1462aUtah to Florida

When I fly and look down at the world I wonder what our Heavenly Father thinks when he looks down.  I love these snow topped mountains we saw as we flew to Florida a few months ago.

Antelope Island

Great Salt Lake, Utah

As we took off for Florida, earlier this year, I had a beautiful view of the Great Salt Lake and Antelope Island in the foreground.  Antelope Island is the largest island in the Great Salt Lake and Stansbury Island, in the background, is the second largest.

Thru the Wild Grass

Antelope Island is pretty barren, I thought it was pretty, though, looking thru the wild grass to The Great Salt Lake.

The Great Salt Lake

For any of you who have never had the experience of going in the Great Salt Lake or the Dead Sea, you have missed out!  It is a very interesting experience to lay back in the water and just float, yes, you really just float!  Thanks to my daughter and grandson for this fun photo!

Swimming Fun

Summer is such a fun time and swimming fun is one of my favorites!  I was just laying back and RELAXING when my grandson took off, so fun!

Fun Time

IMG_1393aSalt Lake City, Utah

We had an awesome 4th of July and I hope you did, too!  Our family came for a barbecue and we had a fun time together.  The grandkiddies loved having their Uncle ‘Big Mike’ throw them into the water!   I just RELAXED, watched and took photos!

Hummingbird

IMG_1269aBluff, Utah

While eating breakfast I watched a couple of hummingbirds as they were playing.  It was fun and even funner to get photos of them!

Wagon Wheels

IMG_1264aBluff, Utah

I got up early this particular morning and went for a walk.  I think I covered the whole city of Bluff, Utah.  I loved the wagon wheels I saw on many of the fences.

On the Line

I took the opportunity when no one was around to sit on the line of New Mexico & Arizona while I looked at Utah & Colorado.  It was a very hot, but fun day!

Agate Bridge

IMG_1389aPetrified Forest National Park, Arizona

Agate Bridge spans 110 feet and was once a towering tree. Over time the tree died, was carried downstream where it was quickly buried in sediment and over time silica began to replace the tree, eventually becoming the log it is today.  In 1911, visitors and conservationists were afraid that the bridge would collapse, and they reinforced the former tree with support.  It sure is amazing and I am so glad we went and saw it while on a recent trip.

Chelsea

While I was taking photos, Chelsea patiently sat and waited.  I had to take this photo of me RELAXING & her RELAXING, too!

Feet

IMG_1279aFour Corners; Utah, Colorado, New Mexico & Arizona

We drove out into the boonies because there isn’t much out at Four Corners. There is a monument and booths where Indians sell their wears, many are homemade and they are pretty impressive!  I RELAXED and ENJOYED watching people stand on all four states at the same time, it was fun!
