At the old ball game
June 15, 2010
I am sitting at a Salt Lake Bees baseball game right now and just noticed some of the most spectacular clouds I’ve ever seen.

First snow!
November 6, 2008
As much as I dread icy windshields, frozen boogers, and blue fingers there is one thing I love about the snow. How much the kids enjoy playing in it. There is nothing better than seeing their wide eyes and rosy cheeks as they throw snow grenades, build forts, and eat delicious snow delicacies. Bring on the cold!
Payson Fire Photos
August 2, 2008
I went down to Payson last night to get some photos of the fire. I lived in Payson from 1999 to 2002 and still have a number of friends down there, so I met one of them and we walked around and took some pictures. Here are my favorite ones:
337-3781 - This was taken looking south-southeast from about 220 E. and 1100 S. This is 2.5 blocks due south from my old townhouse.
.
337-3796 - This was taken looking south from the corner of 500 E. and 1250 S. The house in the right center area of the photo is the home of the bishop that I had when we lived there. He owns all of the orchards surrounding the area. The fire got really close to his home last night and I think the tree in the middle of the photo got burned.
.
338-3803 - A fire hydrant at the corner of 500 E. and 1250 S. I thought it was pretty artistic.
.
338-3807 - This was taken looking south from 1290 S. This house is across the street from my good friends, Dan and Marcey, who were evacuated. Dan happened to be out of town camping with their sons so Marcey was left to pack up the girls and get some stuff out of the house as mandatory evacuation order came. Our other friend, Kimball, showed up just in time to help her get the car packed and the girls in it. The truck in this photo is in the next cul-de-sac (1330 S.) down from my friends' street.
.
338-3811 - This was taken looking east on 1290 S. The house on the far left of the photo is Dan and Marcey's. The fire truck at the end of the street had to move to get away from the scrub fuel and reposition itself as the fire came on.
.
338-3814 - Here is another artistic photo. The truck was parked on Canyon Road just east of 500 E.
Photography is not a Crime!
July 16, 2008
I know how this guy feels. I have felt very uncomfortable, at times, when taking photos because I am afraid of what people are thinking of me. I always go way out of my way to make sure that it doesn’t look even remotely questionable.
First Dental Visit

When Ryan visited the dentist for the first time in April, Melanie snapped a photo with her iPhone. Take a look at this little boy and tell me if he’s not the cutest thing.
