Practice Facility set #3

A little update.

We had our first winter storm but it hasn't really 

slowed them down much.

Trees on the north side had some 

interesting designs with the snow.

More Trail Cam images

 More Trail Cam images

continue to see the raccoons

 and now once in a while a larger 4 point buck.

along with the does that frequent the yard.

BYU Practice Facility Set #2

More of the removal of steps and trees from the East side.

Here is the current artists drawings.

BYU's new Basketball Practice Facility

It has begun.

The building of the new practice facility for BYU 

on the East side of the Marriott Center.

Demolition had started while I was still out after surgery

but I am now able to get almost daily pictures of the progress.

(Don't expect daily updates however.) 

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.
