Artifacts

Filled with artifacts - inside Moqui Cave, located near Kanab, Utah.

Linking to My Home towns shootout for choices.

Colorado River Crossing near Marble Canyon and Lee's Ferry.

Fence and bridge across Lee's Ferry on US 89A.

Fencing and part of the bridge structure across the Colorado River.

Zoomed shot of the Colorado River. 

It started to rain while I was taking pictures of the river so I skittered back to the Navajo open air shops to drool over the earrings, necklaces and little hand-painted pottery canoes.

My youngest granddaughter gave me lots of hugs and love yesterday.  She missed me.  How wonderful it feels to have someone care.

I do water aerobics 4 days a week now - added an extra day this summer and during the summer months we swim outside under our gorgeous Utah blue sky.

I am down 5 lbs - hooray for me!

Our town has been on water restrictions this summer and they gave me a warning ticket for watering on even days instead of odd days.
How would you like that job - going around seeing who is sprinkling their lawns in the middle of the night?

Off to get my massage - they are addicting!

Even with the fence and railing, that is still too high for me. Nothing compares to a hug and kiss from a sweet child.

You have great willpower, congratulation!! These places you show today, they seem very mystical to me, almost sacred. I don't know why I get that feeling.
