The Delicate Arch is 65-foot-tall (20 m) freestanding natural arch located in Arches National Park near Moab, Utah, USA.[1] It is the most widely recognized landmark in Arches National Park and is depicted on Utah license plates and on a postage stamp commemorating Utah's centennial anniversary of admission to the Union in 1996.

After climbing a shade-free, hot slickrock incline for 1.5 miles, reaching 480 feet above the trailhead, Delicate Arch appeared, bathed in the diminishing light of the sunset, which cast a golden blanket across the deserts. This 68 foot tall arch stands mere feet from the edge of a hundred foot canyon, which only justifies the name further. Although this is the most famous arch, audible gasps, as well as deep silence, fell upon the dozens of spectators watching the sunset over the desert.
I love coming across patches of delicate ice formations and this area was along the edge of a very tiny creek in Griffith Woods three days ago, on 10 February 2014. It always seems so wrong if one has to walk over an area like this, destroying all those amazingly formed crystals.
Yesterday, after my volunteer shift, I called in at a shopping centre to see if a small computer store was still in existence. A number of years ago, they did such a good job of transferring all the data from one computer to a new one for me. The time to go through all this has again rolled around and I was hoping so much that the same store would be there. I was so relieved to find it and now have to face the nerve-wracking time of getting used to a new machine (with Windows 7, not 8!). My new computer is still in its box (since late December), waiting for the day when I finally get myself sufficiently organized to bring it out, and that day is almost here. Really, really hoping it won't be too difficult to set up and then work out how to use it. Guessing it will be maybe three days or so that I will be without a computer, so when I suddenly "disappear" next week, you will know the reason : )
Today, a plumber is coming to install a new kitchen tap and replace a bathroom sink and tap. I had no idea that my bathroom sink was metal and apparently the pipe beneath has completely rusted and is slowly leaking. And to think I thought that all I would need would be three new washers, lol! Shopping for new taps and clearing out the cupboards under both sinks has left me with less time recently, but this will be a good thing done.

It was a windy day with mixed cloud. When I walked up to the Delicate Arch, it was still overcast, but with enough openings for hope. The colours were subdued, but then this happened, I've never seen colour brighten and pop so quickly.

We got these nets to catch butterflies because we've had so many in the yard (along with all other bugs!). We had the luck of finding a few very slow and friendly butterflies that we were able to even hold!
