Life of Lizard

Life of Lizard

During my last trip to Utah I was perched peacefully on a rock looking out over a huge landscape when a bit of movement and muffled noise next to me caught my attention. I looked over to find two lizards chasing each other in a strange orbit around a small boulder, like rings around [...]

Smoking Rock

Smoking Rock

Despite having several other things I’d like to post, I decided it was time for another shot from Utah. I haven’t needed to dive back into the archives lately, but today I was out driving with a good friend who’s spent a lot of time crawling around the rocks down there also and it [...]

Erosion of Time

I just got done rebuilding a friend’s computer, and of course it took 7 hours instead of 3. But now he has a clean, fast computer to work with. I love helping folks out… However, I’m now behind on a number of things, so it’s back to the archives and another shot from Utah. This [...]
