Ecclesiastes 2:15–16 (NIV): Then I said to myself, “The fate of the fool will overtake me also. What then do I gain by being wise?” I said to myself, “This too is meaningless.” For the wise, like the fool, will not be long remembered; the days have already come when both have been forgotten. Like the fool, the wise too must die! #sundayvibes

Every time I travel north to Salt Lake City, I have to stop by the LDS Temple. Although I’m not a member of the Church of Latter Day Saints, my ancestors were. Making their way to the valley in 1848, and later were sent to help settle St. George in 1861, then further south into Arizona and eventually into Southern California. Every time I drive through that area I like to stop and give them a remembering thought to what they dedicated their lives to. I can’t imagine what it’s like to travel across the country by horse and wagon, to arrive in your new home during a famine, having to rely on weeds and roots to sustain yourself and your family, all the while building a new home and community. #History #Family #lategram

Every once in awhile you have to just take a dirt road to see where it’ll take you. Happily this one took me to a lake on a hot afternoon returning from Vegas. Lake Mead is at its lowest and shrinking every month. Ten years ago, my car would have been ten foot under water here, and it was a short hike to get to shore today. #wearethewild #peaceful #wonderlust #happyplace #ob1699 #overlandbound

Had a chance to have a chat with a neighbor this morning, he’s not much of a conversationalists but we talked about the weather, he’s certain that the monsoon weather is over for the year, I’m not sure. We’ll see who’s right this week. #desertliving #overlandbound #laidback #wearethewild #ob1699 #awakenthesoul #adventureanywhere
