These first 3 pictures are of the Grand Tetons! They are just as beautiful from the sky as they are from the land!
Some other mountain on our way to Alaska! :)

Sky Watch Friday

These first two pictures are pictures of the Great Salt Lake at sunset. We got there just in time to see the sun go down.
The tallest rock in this picture is called Balanced Rock in Arches National Park. I definitely wouldn't want to be under that thing if it ever fell!This picture is looking through one of the arches of Double Arch.
Arches National Park

I snapped this shot at Edge of the Cedars State Park just as a storm was rolling in.

Castle Gardens




These pictures were taken in Washington DC at the Smithsonian Institute Castle. It is definitely one of the most beautifully landscaped gardens that I have ever seen.
