Last color before Winter and cold

This is our last color before white sets in. Our drive over Nebo loop was beautiful. This year the colors were bright as you can see. The fall is the perfect time of year for me, not to hot, not to cold. I guess you can't have everything. It was a nice day trip and Al and I enjoyed the beauty of the mountains.

Rocks In Our Heads

Our heads hurt along with our feet, backs, hands and even our sit down place. Sometimes we are so hot that we can't stand it and sometimes when the wind blows (which is most of the time) we were cold. We were bent over for hours looking for Topaz crystals, which we can only find if we see the sparkle from them. If the sun is not in the right place, no sparkle. Why in the would do we do things like this? Well I'll tell you, we have fun. We are out side looking at the beatiful world that our Heavenly Father created. We are with the one we love and nothing can get better than that. On top of that we can bring home treasures. Alot of people don't think rocks are so great, but we love them. They all look different, some not so pretty and other really pretty. Look at the rock I am sitting on, it is not so pretty, but inside this rock are little sparkles of Topaz. There is a whole mountain that sparkles when the sun is in the right place. The rocks are not so pretty, but inside are really pretty things. I guess it is like us, some times we shine and at other times we are just a not so pretty person, inside that is. What could be better than that seeing all this in just one day..
