Bliss

Where to Start...
As the End of the day grows nearer, I sit in peace in my home away from home. As of right now I am working in Southern Idaho near a town called Bliss.... Now not to Judge a town.... But the actually city seems far from Bliss.... However as I drive into work down and back out the Malad River Gorge, The views are amazing. Having come across this beautiful, fertile little oasis after coming across the desert just amazes me. It is such a change of pace and scenery. Makes you realize some times in life you need to slow down and open your eyes to see the real beauty of it all. Driving through you catch all the rock formations carved out by the river over millions of years, as you carve through the canyon next to the river, the tiny water falls dropping hundreds of feet out from the desert floor above. The best part of the day is coming up onto the high mesa where I work on the other side, to crest the top and watch the sunlight play peekaboo through the clouds as it rises up from the ashes of yesterday. Yesterday is gone and today has arrived, yet tomorrow will soon be gone...... I have come to realize why they call this Oasis in the canyon Bliss, ID

Life... its so short that you could literally think of it as a blink of an eye, it goes by so fast, we grow and get old, friends come and go, some stay forever and you never see them or talk as often as you want, yet we know in our hearts who they truly are... don't take life for granted, do what you can while you can, if you can dream it you can surely do it.... i have dreams, and i wont let them slide away... I hope if i can teach my son one thing it will be to believe in himself and never let anyone tell him he cant do something he wants too....
so heres to ME and my family and friends

- My bucket list
<<<<<SOON TO COME>>>>>

Tranquility

As I sit here, I ponder the meaning of life, the strength and power of mother natures inferno... yet she has a softer more delicate side, the tranquility as I listen to the winds outside my door, howling like a wolf at the moon. Like a pack of creatures calling to one another with a different song. Different octaves, for each gust, like whales in the sea, singing a song. So loud, so full of anger, other times, she is peaceful and soft. The snowflakes coming down in a swirling collision with earth, yet if you look closer and open your eyes to the serenity of it all, they fall like tiny dancers. Each one with a different soul, no two the same. They twirl and twist, jump and dive. Each one to its own rhythm, each one has its own song, yet all of them intertwined into a fantastic ballet. Sometimes you have to really sit and think to see they beauty in things, other times like today, it comes natural in a calm steady peace. Makes you wonder how something so full of creating destruction, can be so dramatic, and amazing. so full of inspiring awe , So.... Beautiful...

Salt lake weekend trip

Sitting at my sister in laws and watching the heavy equipment tear through the earth in her back yard, makes me wish I was working... scrapers, dozers, trucks, excavators all the necessities to move a mountain
