More surroundings


A view out the car window a little while before Tax Day. When I was showing some photos to a friend, she said "Oh, pictures from NY!" Not.

In honor of the url, let me post a few photos of my surroundings. This is The Great Salt Lake, which our lovely valley is named for. I love it when the wind blows the lake stench into the neighborhood on a summer night just before a thunderstorm. Really.

Why this title?

I started this blog when a friend had one and I had to create my own blog to view hers. She was going to school in England and since I'm in the States, I thought I'd call it "Across the Waters". In March, I finally made my way across the waters after being landlocked for far too many years. I'll post something about that trip soon.

I started my Garden Blog a couple of months ago, and have devoted most of my blogging energy to it, but it's not a good place for those random posts about other stuff, so back to this one.
