Comment on Getting It Wrong by Sarah

Thank you for this post. I have a six year old daughter (my oldest of 4 children)who has very similar struggles and because she hates getting things wrong she doesn’t get anything right because she freezes up. I appreciate your post for knowing I am not the only parent going through this and my child is not the only one who has this problem (something I knew but it’s nice to have confirmation). I really needed to read this right now. It’s been a struggle for me.

Welcome. I’m glad you enjoyed the photos. I was quite stunned at how dramatically different the pictures were by simply facing the sun or away from it.

Thank you for sharing such beautiful photographs. My husband recommended your site to me just a week ago (he has been a fan of Schlock for years) and I have greatly enjoyed all of your posts so far and especially the photos. The contrasting shots from Antelope Island were just plain cool. Perspective is what it’s all about.

I’m pretty sure that my entire country is young compared to most of the buildings in yours.

The grass photographs are great! I also love the ones of your daughters.

Comment on Getting Older by Janci

I had a conversation with Drew about turning thirty, in which he observed that I am not one of those women who is bothered by aging. I think it’s because I have full confidence that my thirties are going to be better than my twenties. I like living an established life instead of constantly having to scramble to build and shift and rebuild. I like the stability of building permanent things, and those things only increase in number as I get older. If my best days are ahead of me, then getting older is a good thing.

Gosh Utah is a young state! My previous house is older than the Fielding Garr Ranch (it shows on the tithe map of 1835) – and the house next door but one was older.

But the scenery wasn’t /nearly/ as lovely.

In comparison, my current house is about much younger at 115 years old – and the scenery in Cambridge is even worse.

Back in ’97 I wondered about what I got into when I re-married. She had two kids, one nine year old, the other thirteen, and no end of financial, family and health problems. I’m still in the relationship, all these years later, and still the problem solver/peace maker. Somehow this isn’t what I envisioned, but I’m certainly needed!
