March 1, 2006 - 02/05 Utah trip So I went out to visit Marit from Feb. 17-21. It was a wonderful time. All too short though as usual. It will be a happy day if Marit and I are ever living in the same state... ![]() Marit looking cute during our walk up the snowy road on one of the mountains where the Sundance Resort is. ![]() Cool house #1 ![]() Cool house #2 ![]() Very large mountain covered in snow. ![]() Cool house #3. We think this is Robert Redford's house...the founder of the Sundance Resort. ![]() Valley. ![]() Cool house #2 again, with cool "Lothlorien" styling :) ![]() Attempt to catch candid picture of Marit #1: unsuccessful. ![]() Attempt to catch candid picture of Marit #2: semi-successful. ![]() Cute couple inside the cabin #1 ![]() Cute couple inside the cabin #2 ![]() Ok, what do you think of when you see this picture? If you're cool, you think "Toy Story gas station". Though it's called Dinoco in the movie, Sinclair stations, which I've never seen before, must've been their influence. ![]() Sinclair gas...so cool. ![]() Christ Evangelical Church...Marit's church! Wahoo, what an awesome body of believers! Keep rockin' for Jesus Utahn peeps! ![]() Beautiful shot of mountains and clouds. The two arrows point to two LDS churches (wards). These things are as common as Starbucks out here. Most of em are within rock-throwing distance of eachother like these two. ![]() Park City, Utah, South Main St. One of America's best, if not thee best, ski/snowboard resort. ![]() Main Street. ![]() The parking meter thingy that ate my credit card. "American Express, leave Park City without it." :) (I got my card back via a cool parking employee) ![]() Very bright cute couple #3 ![]() Less bright cute couple #4 ![]() Bandits Grill & Bar. If you're ever in Park City, eat there, it's great. I had buffalo for the first time there :) ![]() Mountain town. Just like a beach town, without the beach...and the waves...and the boardwalk...and the boardwalk fries...and the salty air...and the bikinis... ![]() The view from outside Bandits'. The mountain is right next to the city. In fact, it's actually part of the city. ![]() Attempt to catch candid picture of Marit #3: fairly-successful. ![]() I love this picture. Marit looks so cute. ![]() Up the side streets, onto the slopes. ![]() Me and Franz. ![]() Marit trying on a snowboarding helmet that was so big she could've used it as a sledding saucer. ![]() Like I said, the ski resort is part of the city. Here the lift picks you up 10 feet away from the Main Street sidewalk. Go skiing, go shopping, go eating...you could do all pretty much at the same time. ![]() More integration. ![]() Attempt to catch candid picture of Marit #4: hardly-successful. ![]() Attempt to catch candid picture of Marit #4: uber-successful! Yes! :) ![]() The jumps down one of the runs. Some guys were doing some sic arials off these. ![]() More trails. ![]() On the way home from Park City. Beautiful mountain lake covered in snow nestled in between the Wasatch Mountain Range. Looks like Europe. ![]() Driving through the canyon. ![]() Top of one of the peaks. Notice the building to the left. Marit said it was an old abandoned restaurant only accessible by gondola, or James Bond mountain elevator as I call em. ![]() Awesome, huge, half frozen waterfall on the side of the mountain. The picture doesn't do it justice. ![]() More pretty scenes. ![]() I just can't get enough of Sinclair petrol stations. ![]() I like snow-capped mountains. ![]() More mountains? Whoa, that's a shocker. ![]() On our way to the Pizza Factor restuarant for lunch...mmm, Pizza Factory. ![]() Cute couple #5 ![]() Close-up cute couple #6 ![]() That's better cute couple #7 ![]() Attempt to catch candid picture of Marit #greatest. I love this picture ![]() Marit really wanted me to take a picture of the sign where the new BMW dealership was going to be built. How can I refuse? Thanks for coming with me everyone on my photo-journal for my recent trip to Utah. I had a great time and hope my pictures gave you a taste of what it's like out there and how beautiful it is. I pride myself in creating my own photo-journals, though I have nothing against your typical Webshots, etc. Peace! |
