Last weekends adventure was looking for Garnets up near the Red Creek by Browns Park, Utah. We traveled a couple hours to get there.
As soon as we started to head out from the car to start searching one of the guys in our group looked down and there at the beginning was a beauty of a Garnet. It was the find of the day! We found some wonderful smaller Garnets and took some home to uncover that are still in their matrix or surrounding material.
We hope to get up there again this season before the cold weather makes it too difficult.

We took a short afternoon trip North of Vernal, Utah last week to enjoy the fall colors and were not disappointed. I love the light thru the leaves and especially the orange and red hues.
The contrast against the dark evergreen trees brought out the colors.
This area is on one of the Scenic Byway Routes.
I hope you are enjoying the beauty of the change of seasons where your are. Take a drive and get away from the hassles.
Vernal, Utah is growing and experiencing a good market. Buyers are coming in and calling to find homes.
We have the energy business here and all the reports I read speak of nothing but progress and expansion plans.
We have new construction for business' and the new college campus taking shape. Everything is busy and I am optimistic.
If we can keep the loans coming for our good buyers and enough affordable houses for them to choose from we will be doing great.
We made a visit to the Colton Draw Guard Station in the Ashley National Forest where the house is rented out to vacationers. It has not been used as a Guard Station for a long time. It is north of Vernal on our beautiful mountains.
It is a nice house with running hot water, toilet, stove and beds. We had a wonderful time. It was a fun adventure and I am we will do it again.

It has been almost a week ago now that we were watching and worrying about our daughter, her husband and our 3 granchildren in Houston.
They were not in the mandatory evacuation area and stayed during Ikes appearance. The eye of the hurricane went right over them in the north east area.
A tramoline decided to fly into their tree from the neighbors yard, hitting the corner of the house on the way and both back side fences came down.
Their electricity came on the next day and they are still in a little island of area with power. It has been a blessing to have others coming over to get out of the heat and others staying with them instead of being displaced themselves. Having enough food they are doing fine and we could not ask for any better.
