  • High desert country ride...Zion National Park. Utah

    A recent vacation with my youngest daughter Amelia...she is from Vancouver and I from Edmonton. Exposure to the desert country of Utah and Nevada very different from what either of us are familiar with....one highlight was a Sunday afternoon half day, 3 hour trail ride for Amelia and I..saw the Three Patriarchs, the Beehives, a breathtaking trip through beautiful cactus gardens, the Virgin River, the Court of the Patriarchs, a trip around the Sandbench Trail, gradually ascending 500 feet giving a spectacular view of the Southern end of Zion National Park....the head wrangler named Curley gave much of the local history....also did some sort trail hikes on own and saw a pair of wild turkeys.

About me...

An Albertan & Canadian, definitely a northern gal. Social worker by profession, this blog has included some of my work over 10 years in Nunavut from 2002 on. Passionate about slowing down & taking time to appreciate the beauty of the outdoors or kindness in relationships as gifts & blessings; injustices against children in situations beyond their control; my faith; Nature, experiencing the outdoors whether cycling, walking. x-c skiing or gardening, my dogs, capturing on film God's beauty, experiencing life intensely & with the senses, richness of late afternoon light, wind in my hair cycling with my dog on a beach road, couching inches from an arctic flower or alpine lichen to capture it with my camera, insight of a student's new learning, a good conversation over a coffee.
