The purpose of this page is to challenge me to open my eyes and truly see the world which surrounds me. So often we trudge though our daily routine, too busy or preoccupied to notice the little miracles happening all around us. I hope to capture, through the lens of a camera, glimpses of my sometimes mundane but glorious little world. I will attempt to post one snapshot each day to share with you. Enjoy!

One of the views from our campsite in Moab. If you look closely you can see the crescent moon rising. The wind has died down significantly and the temps are in the high 90's.... perfect for thawing and drying out. The boys went for a mountain bike ride while the girls (and pups) hiked around checking out some petroglyphs. An afternoon swim is in order before our Mexican feast in town.

We spent last night at Capitol Reef National Park. Our drive this morning took us through the magnificent park. It's a first visit for all of us so we were in complete awe. Just spectacular!

Gorgeous landscapes and dry, warm weather made for a great drive to Capitol Reef National Park.

I flew to Utah this morning to hook up with all my guys. Here they are chillin' at our campsite. "Do these onions need to be caramelized, mom? This is some pretty fancy cooking for camping!" Sounds good, Sam.

Our last morning up at Whistler and the sun is shining!  We decided to take a quick 5k run through the large cedar forest before packing up and heading back to Washington.  These trees are enormous, old growth, magnificent beauties.  The knot where the sign has been posted is about the size of my head! You know it's got a warning sign because someone needed to be rescued after climbing in there!!!! Now that would have been a great scene to capture....

Our last full day of running the trails at Whistler took us on a 7 mile trek out to Green Lake. We started early, running with a guided group so we wouldn't take any detours. This gave us the opportunity to get in an afternoon hike up to Nairn Falls Provincial Park before a relaxing dinner in our lodge suite for the evening.
A special Happy Birthday to my wonderful husband. I'll be joining you in just a few days! Love you!

Day 3 trail running at Whistler, BC was scheduled to be an easy, sunny 10 miles. A wrong turn and an inaccurate weather forecast made it a cold, cloudy, pounding 15 miles. At least we didn't have any downpours and the sun wasn't blazing hot!  I think tomorrow will be a shorter day.... please!
