Red & Green



When tomatoes were under suspicion we found these wonderful cherry tomatoes at our local market. Not good for making salsa as they add a bit too much sweetness. However quite tasty in salads. But the green in this photo is cilantro, one of my favorite herbs, that I use in a variety of dishes.

Wandering about.............



Mr Doodles decided to wander about on our next door neighbor's farm that has a couple of bison as well as some beautiful horses.




I had my little point and shoot and I stumbled on this very old tree
that had fallen years ago

Along the way...

When you pull into a rest area you never know what you might see...this time was a lady on her way to Las Vegas to ride one of her horses in a show there. Her faithful companion Buster always by her side. What a sweet dog he is.

Below you see Baxter munching on his lunch of some tasty hay. The other horse in the background is the owners favorite riding horse Beau.

a few flowers to greet you on the way to the small Chapel on grounds.


The famous Salt Lake Temple


And the ever so world famous Mormon Tabernacle Organ, 11,623 pipes to be exact. Yes this is where the Mormon Choir performs and you would not believe the acoustics.
