Folk Lores - 06/21/08 07:28 PM
I recently did a blog on a shoe tree I saw between LaVerkin and Toquerville Utah. I wondered why there were shoes all over in the tree. Hope that someone will have some information on it. Rich Dansereau added an interesting comment about bottle trees down south and the folK lore behind them (also a great picture of one). I was wondering what other folk lore people might like to share?
Update, KSL TV in Salt Lake City is going to do a story on the tree and use my picture. They recently cut it down because they felt it was a hazard. A … (6 comments)

I went to St George, Utah last week and on my way back to Salt Lake City I passed through the towns of LaVerkin and Toquerville. In between these two towns I saw this tree.
Can you guess what is in the tree?

Must be Summer in Vernal - 06/17/08 10:42 PM
The weather has been kind of cold and unusual out this way. Now it is warmer and it seems like summer is going to stay. A sure sign of summer in Vernal is seeing the beautiful planters and pots along Main Street filled with petunias. Varieties of purples and pinks, with a touch of white. Thought I would share this wonderful site!

Fountains at Cobble Rock Park
Petunias along the front of the park

My Father An Inspiration - 06/16/08 11:25 PM
My father was a great example for my Sisters and I. He was a teacher, and taught us the value of education. He felt if you could read you could learn to do anything. He showed us this by example. If he wanted to do something he got a book, and the next thing you knew he had accomplished the task. He not only taught us that we could learn to do anything, he also taught us we could be anything we wanted to be. We have missed him these past 27 years and wish that he was here so our … (4 comments)

The Beauty of the Greenbelt in Idaho Falls Idaho Check out the Falls! - 06/08/08 10:58 AM
Memorial Day weekend was a great time to get out and walk the greenbelt. The flowers and trees were blooming.
