Random Utah Photos

It's been a hot & lazy Saturday today...I was able to upload a few more photos from Utah.... Here are just a couple notes about some of the photos:

(1st photo) We were sight seeing with Mary & Neil on a dirt road that ran along the side of a mountain. Off to my right the clouds had parted just in one small area casting a beautiful light down on just a few select mountains....Neil pulled the car over. I put the window down and took the top photo right from inside the car. It was a different story in Alaska...once on the land portion of the trip, the bus kept on moving..... Great memories of both Utah and Alaska....but a certainly a few nicer sight-seeing shots in Utah.

(3rd photo) A view of the mountains at Sundance Ski Resort, the resort Robert Redford owns.

(4th photo) The purple flower is called 'Monks Hood'. The very first time I even knew of it's existence was in Norway...after that introduction, I noticed it in Maine, Utah and even in Alaska...gosh, those little monks do get around.
