Matt's New Phone

Matt came over and hooked up his new "Vibrant" Droid phone to the TV and showed me all the new features -amazing. 

Thursday's Photo class

We took a little photo excursion to Beus Trailhead just before the sunset.

We tried to get the right light on one of the students.

A photo I took of Beth, the "youngster" in the class.

Jon took this photo of me, but I'm not liking it too much...

Photography Class

I'm taking a three-day photography class on "Understanding Light" from an old high school classmate who is a professional photographer, Jon Williams.

We went outside and took some pictures in Jon's backyard, trying to catch the light before the sun set.

Moon on a Post

Elaine and I saw the huge moon this morning on our way home from the gym. It really looked a lot larger in person. I pulled over when I could and snapped a couple of pictures. This one looks like the moon is sitting on the light post:)

Back in Time

I followed this old car on my way home from work. Cute old couple inside. I wonder if they've always had this car.  Has it been parked in their garage all these years? Do they take it out only in good weather?

Picking my Orange Tomatoes

So happy to finally pick my little orange tomatoes. They are so much sweeter than the reds.

Spiral Jetty

Look what attached itself to Cathy's car on our drive to the Spiral Jetty! This grasshopper hitched a ride from Brigham City to the Golden Spike Visitors Center. We should have charged him car fare. Really, with the price of gas, he should have chipped in.

The Spiral Jetty was created by sculptor, Robert Smithson in 1970. It is made of mud, salt crystals, basalt rocks, earth and water. I hiked about half-way up the hill to be able to view the Spiral Jetty better. Looking back, I wish I would have hiked to the top.

Is this remnants of an old pier? Makes one wonder about the history of this area.

The weather was so odd. We worried about rain, but didn't get any until the drive back, after dark. These are mammatus clouds.

The sky looked like this while Cathy and I were wandering around - half clear and half clouds.
