UTAH

My parents moved to the Salt Lake City area in 2006 and over the years I’ve been lucky enough to explore different areas of it’s vast natural beauty. Since I was just there for a quick visit a few weekends ago (which was mostly spent catching up on sleep) I thought it would be fun to compile a photo journal of some of my Utah highlights from present to past (see gradual use of heavy IG filters and borders).
And oh yeah, my husband and I got engaged there!


SALT LAKE CITY

Believe it or not, I don’t have a ton of photos of actual Salt Lake. Need to work on that. But my parents do live in beautiful area right outside of the city.

SALT FLATS

2019 - The Salt Flats were on my bucket list. Though they were flooded when we went. It was still like being on a different planet.

BRYCE CANYON

In 2016, Danny and I drove to Bryce. Another out of planet experience - the hoodoo’s were nothing like I have ever seen before. We took a horseback ride deep into the canyon (first and last time on a horse) and then after we picnic’d, Danny proposed, and then we hiked the nearby Slot Canyons. Truly a beautiful place.

ZION

2015 we visited Zion. Tower red faces looking down into the canyons. We woke up early and hiked Angel’s Landing. The entire hike took about 6 hours. If you’re scared of heights, steep drops, or just crowds - this is not the hike for you.

BIRCH BAY, WA

This past Labor Day, my beautiful friend, Nikole, and I headed up north to visit British Columbia, Canada for the weekend. But before we crossed the border we stopped in at her friends/super hosts new, cutie 1940’s vacation beach house in Birch Bay, WA for the night.
The entire coastline was filled with adorable vintage beach homes while the calm waves crashed on shore and friendly dogs splashed in the water. And the best thing of all: it’s crabbing town. I don’t have much to say except that I feel very grateful to have spent time here with such wonderful people sharing crab and cocktails.
