Glasgow Cathedral
Glasgow Cathedral is dedicated to Saint Mungo and is the oldest cathedral in mainland Scotland. There are two St Mungo’s in Scotland, one here in Glasgow and the other in Orkney and are the only medieval cathedrals to have mainly survived the Reformation, some damage caused but no way near the scale of destruction inflicted on many other churches, abbeys and cathedrals.
There was a stone cathedral on the site in 1136. Incidentally St Mungo’s tomb lies in the middle of the cathedral’s lower church. Fragments of this early church have been discovered beneath the present structure. This early church was dedicated in 1197. It is thought that the major part of the construction of the current church took place in the 13th century.
After the reformation it was partitioned into three congregations (Inner High, Outer High and Barony). This partition was still in place until the early 19th century. So in 1835 a major restoration took place after the Outer High and Barony moved to another part of the city.
The Cathedral has been Crown Property since 1587, then, in 1857 it moved in care of the State. Now it is the responsibility of ‘Historic Environment Scotland’.

Arches National Park is a U.S. National Park in eastern Utah. It is known for preserving over 2000 natural sandstone arches, including the world-famous Delicate Arch, in addition to a variety of unique geological resources and formations.
The park is located just outside of Moab, Utah, and is 119 square miles (310 km2) in size. Its highest elevation is 5,653 feet (1,723 m) at Elephant Butte, and its lowest elevation is 4,085 feet (1,245 m) at the visitor center. Since 1970, forty-three arches have toppled because of erosion. The park receives 10 inches (250 mm) of rain a year on average.
Administered by the National Park Service, the area was originally designated as a National Monument on April 12, 1929. It was redesignated as a National Park on November 12, 1971.

Our next area to visit in Arches National Park was the Devil's Garden area. It had been closed for quite a few months as the roads were being upgraded but luckily for us, had just re-opened. We hiked out to Double O Arch and back the same way. It was too hot to do the loop.

CC Week 37: Changing Seasons
As I wandered through a local big box store I noticed many of the fall season products were already up, and more were in the works, with an abundance of Halloween-related displays. I found the somewhat bare partitions to be interesting, even when they had very little on them.
