Green shutters

While we were in Utah for vacation recently, we went to this little shopping area called Gardner Village, which is near Salt Lake City. Gardner Village was made up of lots of historic old buildings. This shop really caught my eye with its green shutters. I think I love the contrast of the whimsical shutters against the weathered log house. Now, if you have to ask me what the shop sold, I can't be certain. From looking at a map of the village, I think it's yarn.

This was the sky last week while I was on vacation in Utah. We were outside a restaurant at the Canyons Resort near Park City. I love the way the white birch trees play against the perfectly clear blue sky.

I'm participating in Skywatch Friday today.

Kiss the Moose!

We were on vacation in Park City, Utah, last week and found this huge moose outside a store on Main Street.

A loose re-enactment of how this photo came about.

Me: Dave, pose with the moose so I can take a photo.

Dave: No.

Me: Come on, kiss the moose.

Dave: No.

Me: Those big red lips are begging to be kissed.

Dave: No.

Random passer-by: Kiss the Moose!

Everyone: *laughter*

Me: At least stand near the moose.

Dave: If I must...

Me: Get a little closer.

Dave: *makes exasperated growling noise*, *puts on smile*, *graciously poses with moose*

Me: Thanks, Honey. I love you!
