After we got to Zion National Park, we spent a lot of time in Zion Canyon. Hiking from the end of the bus line to the start of the narrows, then up to the Emerald Pools, and other stops. At one point, we came across a Sacred Datura with one lone blossom on it. The [...]

I love aspen trees. I love them when they’re young, when they’re old, when they’re green and, especially, when they’re decked out in Autumn colors. Generally, aspen leaves turn yellow.

The title of today’s blog is a sort of recap of Wyoming’s seasons. At least what we’ve had so far. It’s snowing again, and I think Winter is going to set in for good now. Between the two or three snowstorms in September and October, the cotoneasters in the front yard got all autumny. I [...]
