A sort walk during the day.

Recently while recovering from thyroid surgery

I had time on my hands and instructions 

to get out and walk each day.

So one day I took my phone with me since I was 

restricted by a weight limit of ten pounds and my

camera is far heavier than that.

I saw a beautiful hawk.

Fall leaves with a touch of snow adorning them.

Beautiful grass bushes highlighted

 by the afternoon sun.

And my favorite mountain.

God created so many very wonderful things for us to

experience each day.

Provo LDS Temple

I love the fall time of the year. As I was walking up to the 

Provo Temple I loved the colors not only on the

temple grounds but the mountains behind as well.

This was the scene coming out of the temple 

as the sun was setting.

Power Down

I was walking back from the pavilion

when I heard a fairly distinctive explosion.

It was snowing lightly and had been all day.

I looked toward the sound and saw a power pole falling over. 

It had been burning in the middle of the pole and finally gave way.

We were without power for about 8 hours and learned some good things from it.

My generator refused to start.

The flashlights that we have hung by the door

in each room were in need of a little fresher batteries.

 They gave off light but not much so we replaced the batteries.

We had no second source of heat which wouldn't have been 

too much of a problem had there not been a baby in the house.

Other than that things were pretty well set.

More trail camera images

I enjoy this camera and how it can be where I cannot.

But I am wondering if I should be concerned

with the fact that I am getting images of raccoons 

almost as often as mule deer.

 This is a popular entry / exit spot for the deer.

And apparently the raccoons like 

the same entry / exit spot. I love 

how the doe is watching them.

Of course the horses are an added benefit and I don't 

mind them at all.

 Except this spot is hopefully not an 

entrance / exit spot for them.

Well I guess I can't complain since there is 

yet to be a skunk in the images.

Trail Cam Tracking

So I just borrowed a trail cam and on the second night after it was installed 

I got several hits through the night. 

Here are some of them.

 I knew we had raccoons around here now after finding one with 

kits in the top of my shed.

She only had three however and it looks like

there are at least 4 maybe 5 with this coon.

 The deer must like this little corner of the world.

It does just happen to be near where they jump the 

fence from the field into the yard.

 However they seem to be camping here as well.

Rock Canyon clouds

I love to see these types of scenes

where the clouds are just hanging

around the mountains.

An afternoon walk

Just a short walk but things are so pretty right now.

Could hear these geese for almost 5 minutes 

before I finally spotted them.
