Utah Red

Here is some Utah red rock. I have heard people say that there is not a lot of color in Utah, but the colors that there are are beautiful enough to make up for the ones that are lacking.

Water from the Rock

Exodus 17:6 "Behold, I will stand before thee there upon the rock in Horeb; and thou shalt smite the rock, and there shall come water out of it, that the people may drink. And Moses did so in the sight of the elders of Israel."

Helaman 5:12 "And now, my sons, remember, remember that it is upon the rock of our Redeemer, who is Christ, the Son of God, that ye must build your foundation; that when the devil shall send forth his mighty winds, yea, his shafts in the whirlwind, yea, when all his hail and his mighty storm shall beat upon you, it shall have no power over you to drag you down to the gulf of misery and endless wo, because of the rock upon which ye are built, which is a sure foundation, a foundation whereon if men build they cannot fall."

John 4:14 "But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life."

River of Water

This is really more of a stream than a river, but you get the idea. I took this picture in Rock Canyon in Utah.

Sometimes the most out of the way places yield the most wonder.

Poetic Beauty

These rocks are red, the sky is blue. There are three bushes, and a tree too.
I took this picture in Diamond Fork Canyon in Utah. It is a beautiful place. My sarcastic poetry doesn't do it justice. If you ever get a chance to go there are hot springs, a river for fishing, red rock to climb, and trails to hike.

Wolf Spider in Rock Canyon

This hairy wolf spider was sharing the trail in rock canyon with me. As I was taking pictures of me he kept charging at me. A very aggressive individual.

Spider Monkey Day Dream: The Grass is Greener on the Other Side.

Have you ever wanted something you couldn't have. At some point this occurs to the best of us.We all have our day dreams in which we are rich or famous. We all have our moments in which we think, if only. But don't let dreaming of what might be make you miss out on what could have been if you had lived today. Dreams can either focus our lives and give us drive, or they can destroy us in a foul mood of ill contentment. Let your dreams be a driving force for good. Don't covet what is not yours, rather find a way to become what you dream off and no fence can ever hold you back. Don't sit at the base of the fence like this spider monkey with a dumb look on your face, but get to work and hatch the plan that will allow you to get over the fence, because when you get there by yourself, rather than having it given to you, you will find the grass greener on the other side.
