Belated return from Utah post

I made it back from Utah safe and sound. A lot of people have asked me about Polygamy since I have returned, shows you how popular Big Love has gotten. To be factual, the custom of polygamy is not as common amongst the later day saints as it once was. (See "Under the Banner of Heaven" by John Krakauer)

I sent out a link to my photos via email. If you didn't get it email me here eyemheer2@yahoo.com I wish that there was a way that I could narrate the photos some way on snapfish but I don't think that there is a way to do that. I am so happy that I have a new camera, it takes really great photos. My favorite is



If you have any questions about any of the photos shoot me an email.

I had a wonderful time in Utah, I didn't realize how beautiful it is. From the I- 15 Utah doesn't look too impressive, but once you get off of the interstate and go west about 20 minutes it is like you are in a completely different world. I think the tag line for Utah should be

"If you want to see what Mars looks like, just go east from the I-15."

We tried to visit as much a we could in 4 days Bryce Canyon, Kolob Canyon, Zion National Monument and The Hoover Dam. This is actually quite a feat. There were definitely places that I would have liked to stay longer like Zion, which I think is one of the most phenomenal places I have ever seen in my life.

Here is what I learned about myself:
1) I have a very intense crippling fear of heights.
2) I have a great boyfriend who did not tease me and helped me out quite a bit and helped me to see places that I wouldn't have seen.
3) The next vacation I take will have to be something that is located at a much lower altitude
4) Eventhough I really wanted to, I will never go to Macchu Pichu.
