don't make 'em like they used to

 



Summer of Red

It was definitely a summer of red- from the heat waves that scorched us all and turned us sunburned to the fires that sent gusts of red flames and smoke through the air. The summer of 2021 was RED!

Berries and stuff

 I love going rock hunting with my family! My mom loves rocks and has a nice rock tumbler and collection. It is a great way to get outside and enjoy the sun! I love to take my camera and see what might 'catch my eye' out in the Wyoming wilderness.  I have yet to see any really neat wildlife but since those mainly consist of the deadly variety I think I am okay passing.

Thermo Springs

One thing I love about living in Thermopolis, WY is the Hot Springs. The water can be so colorful, blooming with different algae based on the temperature and then it leaves behind so much plain white sulfur. The contrast can be so stark and vivid. Sadly, over the few years since I have been here, the water has slowly decreased and with it the beautiful color.

Southern Utah Trip

We took a long overdue family trip down to Southern Utah! We stayed in the picturesque Pine Valley, climbed up so Red Cliffs and saw the spring runoff at Gunlock- such a stark contrast between the red rock cliffs and the bright blue water. It was a wonderful sight to see!




Historic Pine Valley Chapel- one of my FAVORITE places to see!

Patriotic Bridge

Thermopolis, Wyoming has it's fair share of gorgeous sites! I took pics of this bridge a few years ago and this year they changed the colors for the summer. Beautiful Red, White and Blue! 



The reflection on the water makes a flag and it couldn't be prettier. I also learned a lesson, I need to wear tennis shoes when I go on these nightly excursions- I ran across a four foot bull snake! Now I added the extremely blurry photo at the bottom (my camera battery was dying and wouldn't focus). He sure gave me a start!

Winter Frost

I love winter photography- funny thing considering I don't really like the cold! I gotta say though, nature makes the prettiest art!
