We could see the Grand Canyon for miles far into the horizon. We began the hike in the morning, and were greeted with deep blue skies. As we hiked down into the canyon, it got cooler, but the walking certainly made it seem a lot warmer. Carved by the Colorado River throughout the course of […]
Just next to the LA Live complex in downtown Los Angeles is this purple-glass high rise building soaring high into the sky.
Have I mentioned how much I love fountains? This was a fountain outside in the courtyard of the Venetian suites, just by the swimming pools. It was getting darker, so it was turned on and was glowing this pretty blue color. 🙂
