We went for a walk around Temple Square the other night. Rain was falling, but not too heavily.
The best looking building on Temple Square, in my opinion, is the Assembly Hall which is now about 130 years old. Temple Square is famous for its Christmas lights.
We spend Christmas in Utah most years. We weren’t here last year, but we are this year. It has been foggy every day so I won’t have many pictures from Utah this time.
I pulled today’s photo from the 2004 archives. Ellie was 6 years old at the time. Time flies…
Southside Tattoo is located in the spot of what was a chocolate shop called Silly Rabbit Chocolate Co.
Ellie had her first flute lesson at night last week. I didn’t have my better night camera (LX3) with me, but this photo came out OK anyway. For a similar view during the day see this prior blog entry.
The Ashland Springs Hotel (to the right) is shining brightest. I’ll post a close up and more detailed version of it from this same location in the next few days.
The streaks in the lower left portion of this picture are the drivers on I-5. I left the shutter open for 8 seconds and bumped the ISO up to 400.
After dropping my daughter off at school last week, on a very foggy morning, I captured these wild geese in front of the barn near Ashland Middle School. For the same view, on a much clearer day and panned back a bit, see this photo.
Continuing down I-5, the wind was blowing rather fiercely. So when I got closer to Mt. Shasta, I pulled over to take an up-close photo of the snow that was gusting off the top of the mountain.
As mentioned yesterday, it was a good cloud day, offering great scenery for my six hour drive from Ashland, Oregon to Palo Alto, California. In Palo Alto I met up with a friend who I hadn’t seen in over 30 years.
As mentioned a week or so ago, I headed down to California last week. The sunrise on the morning of my departure was rather stellar.
The clouds were nice all morning in fact. I’ll show you how they looked with Mt. Shasta (about an hour south of Ashland) later on the same day in tomorrow’s entry.
I took this photo of the Ashland Library the other night as I was getting gas on a rainy evening. I really need to get a tripod for Christmas to improve my night photography. Santa, are you listening?
There is a wreath hanging in each of the windows of the library this time of year.
The view from inside the library is really good. I should take a photo from the inside one of these days.
