Back Home




I have been home for a week today. It was a wonderful vacation. We started it in Sedona and from there we went to the Grand Canyon, Hoover Dam, and on to Vegas for 7 days. We took a trip to Zion National Park one day while in Vegas.

I took over 400 pictures, there is so much beautiful scenery to photograph. Most of it was from a moving vehicle though. I have been working on viewing, sorting, and editing my pictures. I want to do something fun with them for all our traveling companions. They are all uploaded to my flickr page, there is a link down on the left side of the screen.

One thing I discovered is that Florida is very very flat where I live!! Just looking at all the geology out west really makes it hit home. I just love to look at the different layers of rock and the different textures and colors that constantly change with the light and shadows of the day. It inspires me to make something beautiful like a quilt or a poster or stepping stones.

I brought home some red rocks and pine cones, I also got a great CD of Native American Flute Music. It is so relaxing, it makes you just want to take a nap or get a massage. The one I bought is called The Best Of Nakai. I just found one of the songs on UTube I will try to share it here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dI2H1sOSbno I guess you will have to click on it, I can't embed it for some reason.

Take a browse through my Flickr for some vacation pctures.
