Exploring the valley

Diana, Murphy and I took yesterday afternoon and drove around some areas in the valley that we hadn't been.  First was Pine Canyon, which looks like a wonderful place for hiking as well as for landscape photography as it sits nestled in the Oquirrhs overlooking the valley.
Next up was Middle Canyon which runs over the top of the Oquirrh's to Herriman and the Salt Lake Vally, albeit the road across the top is dirt.  We only went part way up but really enjoyed it - 10 minutes from the house! Lots more to explore!!
Here's a few shots along the way!

Looking north from Pine Canyon.

She watched us for quite a while.

North again, this time with some cloud action.

Speaking of cloud action, here's what the sun treated us to early in the sunset process.  Later on all the clouds were wonderfully pink and orange.
