Prickly Pear Fruit
Everyone seems to be making prickly pear fruit & jalepeno jelly. It's a gorgeous color! This one was enjoyed by a small critter in the garden.

Cascade Falls
Randy and I went on a walkabout on my day off today. We visited one of the feeder springs for the Virgin River called Cascade Falls. It turns out it's not quite the headwaters...we hiked a part of the Virgin Rim Trail and spent some time at Cedar Breaks National Monument before making our way down Hwy.14 and Milt's in Cedar City for dinner. Besides spectacular views, there were many kinds of mushrooms, bristlecone pine and a yellow-bellied marmot. It was a long and successful day!

Tarantula Dance
It's my first time to see tarantulas mating...I always see the graceful males, but never the two together. I have to say...the characterization of her in Lord of the Rings as Shelob is pretty accurate. The female's shape and color and demeanor are entirely different from the male. She's creepy.

Kanarraville Canyon
An inspiring recent hike in Kanarraville Canyon, Utah. I have many new paintings to contemplate. This was my favorite photo.

Creativity and the Brain
Amazing reading about the brain and how we read and what is happening in the brain when we are creative.

Lampshades
This image is from my favorite design site, DESIGNSPONGE.com. If I had a different decorating scheme going, I'd try these...and maybe I still will.

Personal Eyeglasses Coach
I've always wondered what it would be like to have someone "consult" with me on my eyeglasses to help me determine the best shape and color for my face. Thanks to the New Yorker magazine and an article about three years ago, I found an internet company that will make a pair of frames that is suitable just for you and no one else. They've been excellent to work with and have asked exhaustive and relevant questions about my skin color, hair color, eye color, lifestyle, personality, clothing, etc. Here's the pick, more or less...www.indivijual.com

Kolob Visit
Just a little drive to see what's happening in the high country. It was cool, there were elderberries, firecracker penstemon and a light show with scattered thunderstorms.

Spray Paint Lux
One room is devoted to cool, comforting and relaxing hues. I spray painted several things in cream to create depth in texture and not a lot of color. My concession is the flower arrangement because Stephanie's garden is unrivaled to me.
