I was able to spend a few days in Utah right after Christmas with family. I love it out there. It’s so peaceful, especially in winter when there is snow on the ground. Everything looks and smells so clean and fresh. Unfortunately the day after we arrived I hurt my leg and couldn’t walk much, so I spent a lot of hours putting together jigsaw puzzles and watching Arrested Development on dvd (if you have to sit around watching TV I highly recommend this show). I definitely did not get to take as many pictures as I would have liked, but it was a good trip nonetheless. It is always great to see family and sometimes I need to be forced to sit down and do nothing once in a while.

I hope you all have a wonderful new year and that you live life to the fullest at every moment…

We had a huge storm come in last night – thunder, lightning, the whole bit. So nice to lay in bed and listen to it. As soon as it was over, though, I had to go for a walk…
I think this was my favorite photo of the day:

The city streets are wet again with rain
But I’m walkin’ just the same
Skies turn to the usual grey
When you turn to face the day
