http://thedarringtonsplace.blogspot.com/2009_09_01_archive.html
Saturday, September 26, 2009. The Gorge is Gorgeous! The Columbia River Gorge IS Gorgeous! It is so green and lush, and we really enjoyed our drive through here. We started at the Bridge of the Gods. I remember this bridge from when I was a young girl. I remember crossing to when I was headed to a Girl Scout Camp. I thought it was the coolest and weirdest bridge I had ever seen. Not because of how it looks, because I had seen plenty of bridges growing up in Oregon. But because of this. Then we checked ou...

Wednesday, January 21, 2009. These first ones are of my car. I. Thought they were interesting in how the ice formed. And this was AFTER driving from Center Street Provo, to 1600 North in Orem. Stopped at Costco and found these little bits of ice on the little nubs on my fairly new tires. Beautiful ice crystals across the top of my car. A VIBRANT sunset one evening as I was leaving the house. Our tree in the back yard.I LOVE. It when it looks like this! Another shot of the tree. Friday, January 9, 2009.

The Darrington's Place: Golden Spike National Monument
http://thedarringtonsplace.blogspot.com/2009/07/golden-spike-national-monument.html
Tuesday, July 21, 2009. Golden Spike National Monument. Another stop on the way home from Declo Days.was the Golden Spike National Monument. Jim was reading a family history about his Grandfather and it mentioned that he was there when they drove the last spike. We were just about 10 miles from the exit when he read that, and I asked, "Do you want to go there? We never have, I think we should! He said "Sure, it sounds like a good idea." So off we went. Here is the 119 from the East and it operates on coal.

As I was headed out of the house this morning, I opened my car door and noticed some of my things strewn about the car.not where they belonged. Then I looked around and my car radio was GONE! I didn't lock the car door, but REALLY.it just feels so wrong! You can bet I will be from now on! Sunday, November 9, 2008. Thank You Food Network! I've mentioned this already.Matt's ...

Tuesday, September 30, 2008. I mentioned earlier that we have been fixing things up around the house. Well, we needed to sell a few old things.the two year old furnace, the old manual defrost freezer, and Jim mentioned I should sell them on craigslist. Well some co-workers mentioned ksl.com classifieds. I placed both items up for sale in both places and the winner was.KSL.COM! I couldn't believe how well that worked.for FREE! But they were in beautiful shape. View from the front door. I can honestly say ...
