Home Sweet Home

After spending two months looking at this:

I understandably get very excited when I start to see this:

as I wend my way back to the Inland Northwest.

Please excuse my sub-par camera phone image, but I think it does a sufficient job illustrating the difference in water supply between southern Utah and western Montana/North Idaho.

Actually I'm being a little unfair because Utah has been getting an unusual amount of rainfall this June so it's actually a bit greener than the above picture (which is not current), but Orderville is still the desert. No matter how green the grass and sage brush and juniper trees, it's still just grass and sage brush and juniper. I always love the moment when I'm driving through Montana and I realize I'm surrounded by real trees again.

Hey there. It's been a while. It sounds like your doing good. I was reading your blog and found out that Debbie Copstead had passed.She always read my blog. She was so sweet and always asking how I was. she had such a good spirit about her especially through her hard times. Do you know how Chris is doing? If you see him tell him hello for me.
