    Thanks for the tour-I've not seen the Temple in real life or really visited Salt Lake City. Looks beautiful

    Lovely shadows! It's great to see the trees with leaves again! (Although I also love the gracefulness of bare branches,)

    Beautiful. It has been years since I have walked the area and I always enjoyed it.

    Every time a little plot of color brightens the cold starkness of the city, it is a beautiful thing!

    What a lovely place. Nice shots!

    Funny you should mention Philly and ancestors. I didn't know this before I moved here but I recently found out that some of my ancestors came to Philly from Switzerland in the 1750's. They ended up in Salt Lake City by the mid 1800's.
    I'd like to see Salt Lake City and Spanish Fork someday because that's where my mother, grand parents, great grand(s) going back several generations were born.

    Nice shots, Ruth. I have never been to Utah, let alone Salt Lake City.

    Neat shots. I really like the reflection in the first shot and I love those lion heads in the last one.
