Snow on the Lindens

Image
The early November snow makes our back yard a lovely winter wonderland.

November Sunset

Image
Setting sun lights up clouds over the Oquirrh Mountains. Our skies are beautiful this time of year. The early snow helps the scene too.

Back Yard in Rain

ImageThough not a strictly "nature" photo, I found this view of our back yard especially pleasing on this peaceful, rainy June afternoon. Of course the gentle rain showers reminded me of England.

Wondrous June

Image Finally ispired by yet another amazing sunset, I got the camera out and headed for Vegas Street once again. The reward for my effort was this beautiful, peaceful view. Love it.

April 2nd 2010

Image Ah, Spring in Grantsville! The two-day snowstorm we just received was an amazing April fool's joke. Longest steady snowfall in years. What's not to love?

Frosty, Foggy Morning

ImageThese trees covered with frozen fog offered a scene that was repeated all over town on this first day of Winter. We didn't have much snow as yet, but Winter had certainly arrived. Love the fog.

North Cooley - First Day of Winter

ImageOn a drive around town in search of frosty scenes, I was captivated by this wintery view down Cooley Street. Most of the white on the ground is not snow, but frozen fog that has fallen from the trees. Beautiful!

High Country Quakies

ImageAnother shot from my day-long hike in the mountains. Standing here in the silence, I was able to smell, feel and touch the wonder that is nature. Before continuing my hike, I stood for several minutes, enthralled by the beauty of the colors and the feel of the cool, damp air. Thrilling.

In the Wilderness

ImageIt is a complete delight to live so near the Deseret Peak Wilderness Area of the Wasatch National Forest. The deep, thick stands of pines, firs and quaking aspen offer the perfect relief from a busy, troubled world.
