Beautiful East Fork!

Wednesday, July 8, we took off on a little jeep ride. We decided we needed to find the cooler temperatutes so for sure East Fork was the place. So we loaded up a picnic, the doggies, lots of water and headed out. Started in Johnson, out through scutumpah and then over deer springs ranch and headed up on top of the beautiful pink cliffs. After about 7 hours of pumping around and eating tons of dust, we got these great pictures. Even the pups were covered in dust, not to mention the jeep. Spent all morning on the 9th giving it a very detailed cleaning job, but in spite of that, it was a beautiful, warm day and we had a great time.

Wild Iris in Alton, Utah

First Week of Summer

It's been unusually cool in Kanab for being the first week of June. But as I look all over town, the roses and flowers are gorgious. They are thriving in the cool air. I wouldn't mind if it stayed this cool for awhile. We haven't had to run air conditioners very much and sleeping conditions are great. Crack a window and snooze. These are a few of the roses around my house. So pretty, you would think that I'm a gardner or something. Sunday afternoon, we took a little ride up north of Alton. It is so green it's unreal. As we were coming out of Alton we came on to a few elk standing in the ponds. This was the only buck among 'em but he sure was beautiful. I can't believe the scenery we have so close to us. Love this whole area.
