The wows keep on coming…
Bryce Canyon
Bryce Canyon
It’s quite incredible how much rock formation has occurred in this area. I presume it’s on a fault line with all this activity. Do you not worry, Ted, about being on the San Andreas fault? I do remember the quake of 1989.So interesting. The Bryce Canyon landscape is impossibly jagged, while the White Pocket landscape looks like it's flowing.
I drove across the country once with some friends. Started out from San Francisco with me driving. Somewhere in Nevada, we switched drivers, and I got some sleep. I woke up in Utah, surrounded by mesas with everything in shades of purple and lavender. It was like a hallucination.
The thing about earthquakes is that there's a lot you can do to mitigate the risk -- where you live (substantial portions of the faults are mapped), what kind of ground you're on, and whether your building construction uses modern "earthquake aware" techniques. In the 1989 earthquake, whose epicenter was not too far away, we had a few jars fall off shelves in the kitchen and some cracks in the chimney, but nothing worse. And big quakes are not that common here -- 1989 was the year we moved into this house, and in the 34 years since, there've been only minor rumbles.It’s quite incredible how much rock formation has occurred in this area.

I never did get the draw of Las Vegas…..Last day in Vegas glad to say. Went out and tried some ICM with one of my favourite apps, Overcam. This image is a combination of an ICM and a straight image, both taken in the app and blended and masked in iColorama.

That cactus really looks alive, with a weird hairstyle and wawing to youI decided not to play golf today with my DH. The course was very expensive and I quite like sitting in the cart with my binoculars, bird watching or looking out for animals especially if it’s in the afternoon. I enjoy this just as much.

I also had an opportunity to wander through some of the rough and photograph the interesting plants.
