Moon over the lake


The moon as seen from Utah Lake, looking back toward Provo.

Marry me


What could be more romantic than a marriage proposal on a trophy store sign? But I still hope she said yes.

Wet Season



It has been an unusually wet summer here in Utah. I was trying to film raindrops during a particularly violent thunderstorm and kept forgetting to disable my flash. This was one of the results.

Skeleton



These bones were found along the trail at Provo Canyon.

Canyon Road



In my opinion, the Provo Canyon path looks especially pretty as a black-and-white photo.

Water Park



It wasn't until I moved away from BYU campus that I got to know other parts of Provo a lot better. This water park is located in central Provo and these two slides are the main attraction for everyone over the height requirement of 48'. :)

Construction



Utah + summer = road construction. These cones were eventually used to cut off one lane on a major Provo road--University Avenue.

Stormy Flag



I love this large flag just outside of a local grocery store. Especially when storm clouds are just rolling in.

Provo Tabernacle

Before Christmas, one of Provo's landmarks caught fire. Here is a picture of the structure (which is currently held up by scaffolding):

Window watch



Love this window in downtown Provo!

Live Music


A couple of local musicians at the Farmer's Market

Colorful Bike Stand



Bicycles outside a shop on Center Street. I love the colors.

Bi Bim Bop


One of the many dishes available at a locally-owned Korean restaurant.

The Neighborhood Hangout

I love when people get creative. I mean, if you don't have a porch, where else would you hang the birdfeeders?

Wall

Empty road

Stores downtown



Misty Y Mountain


It's been a rainy, cloudy week; as you can see, we could barely see the mountains.

Spring flowers


Another shot from the temple. I love these flowers; they're kind of bizarre.

Happy Easter!


I saved this particular Sunday Churches entry for Easter, because this is the most important building in the whole city to me, and Easter is one of the most important days of the year. This is the Provo Temple of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, where members of the church go to worship and to make sacred covenants that will enable us to return to God. And what better day is there to make mention of this building, which is for so many people symbolic of the hope of eternal life, than on Easter, when we remember that Christ atoned for us to save us from sin and rose from the tomb to save us from the grave?





"He is not here, for He is risen." Happy Easter!
