Home Sweet Desert

I grew up in Grand Junction, Colorado, as a child and young adult I never appreciated it's beauty. I thought it was brown, gray and tumbleweeds. Grated now being adult the habitat and landscape of this area has not changed but I think my eyes have. A few years ago it just hit me, what a beautiful place I live. No, there are not lots of lush green trees, but the colors of the rocks and the sunsets make up for it. The hiking is amazing,the trail running is phenomenal, and the mountain biking is awesome. I love my desert!

Here are my views on our way back home from our mini-trip to Utah...
