Leaving Erda

Today was our last trip to Erda - we took the final truck load out by 1, said goodbye, and stopped over to see friends at the Tooele Valley Nursery.
There we saw this awesome dust devil - just hanging out there waiting to be photographed!

Goodbye Erda! You'll always be in our hearts!

Humming around!

These little beauties have been very active lately - perhaps getting ready for the upcoming travels!

Photos at Sunset

Sitting on the deck at sunset and watching life go on around us.  Here's some of the shots.

Someone told these two that there was food around here somewhere!!

Random shots!

Play

Kids at play - a wonderful reminder of how beautiful the world is!

Up Close!

Getting up close reveals fascinating detail sometimes - and the small details become much more visible.

One thing leads to another!

Poppies

A study in graceful fragility - stop and look close.

Snowy Egret

Over at Stansbury Park in their waterway a lot of different birds and beings stop by.  Here's a Snowy Egret hanging out.

Good Night!!

Sky Spyders

Tooele airport is a favorite spot for sky divers - easily accessible, cheap and lots of clear skies to tumble around in.  Here's some enjoying a beautiful day yesterday.
