Thanks so much for taking a look. That amber is everywhere, and oh, so gorgeous . . . especially at sundown!

What a great story! There wasn’t a lot of fruit ready to be picked when we were there, but from the few times I’ve eaten peaches right off the tree, I’d love to return and try again. Thanks for sharing this.

Now that’s a great idea! I’d love to see these parks by night. I’ve read that viewing the stars is especially wonderful because there are no man-made lights anywhere nearby. Thanks for taking a look and commenting!

Andrew, put any of the Utah parks on your radar. You won’t be disappointed!

Thanks for the compliment on the photo of the storm brewing. I often think of framing one photo from each state, and that one just may get my vote for best of Utah! Hope you can get to these national parks someday. They are treasures for anyone around the world. Thanks for taking a look!

We camped there, among apricot trees which were in season. We ate as many apricots as we wanted while we were there. As a kid that was just wonderful. Today, more than 50 years later when smell a ripe apricot, or even see them in the grocery store I am transported there. Thanks for sharing this. I love the ‘storm brewing shot!’

When I was growing up, I went on a family vacation where we traveled through Utah on I-80 at night, and much of the scenery looked like a moonscape.

But clearly I missed out!

Your photographs are absolutely beautiful. Particularly the one of the storm brewing and the first one of the Capitol Dome. Thanks for the trip to these natural beauties!
