No idea why these stones were placed in the Great Salt Lake - but they do make for a nice leading line :-)
The Kennecott Garfield Smelter Stack is 1,215 feet (370 m) high which is about the same height as the Empire State Building.
The 1883 cemetery sits at the base of the Oquirrh Mountain range; its the second oldest cemetery in the Salt Lake Valley. The cemetery overlooks the Salt Lake Valley and the Great Salt Lake.

Mit den magnetischen Bauplatten in geometrischen Grundformen lassen sich kreative Bauwerke erstellen. Ok, ich bin hier gerade noch bei einfachen Bauwerken aber dafür bunt.
With the magnetic building plates in basic geometric shapes you can build creative buildings. Ok, I'm just here with simple buildings but colorful.
HLc...oF! :-)

Paestum a major ancient Greek city on the coast of the Tyrrhenian Sea in Magna Graecia settled in 600-550 BC by the Dorians or by Greek Achaeans. Original Greek name of the city was Poseidonia after the Greek deity of the sea. Aug 2018
I couldn't reach the Great Salt Lake this evening due to an interstate crash and a one hour backup with no alternate routes. The sky gave signs it would have color at sunset, so I was desperate to find a scene - I wound up at the cemetery.

An assortment of leased EMD locomotives (Santa Fe, MidSouth, Burlington Northern) pull Utah Railway's RUT311 local along the former Rio Grande Bingham Branch in West Jordan, Utah the afternoon of Oct. 25, 1997. The snowy granite peaks of 9,026 ft. Mt Olympus tower over the vanishing point. Today this right of way is occupied by UTA's "Red Line" to Daybreak in South Jordan, Utah.
Located just west of Salt Lake City in Magna Utah by the Great Salt Lake just off of I-80 is Kennecott Copper's Garfield Smelter smokestack the tallest free standing structure in Utah and in fact west of the Mississippi. Built in 1974 it stands 1,215 feet dwarfed from a distance by the 9,000 foot Oquirrh mountains that surrounds it but driving by the structure whose hexagonal base is an impressive 177 feet wide one realizes it scale is immense. The smelter that smokestack serves is one of the most efficient in the world capturing 99.9 of the sulphur gas released so it size is overkill but it was very expensive and costly to downsize. Besides it is used as a landmark for air, land and sea travel on the Great Salt Lake.

The sweet, lazy whistles of Eastern Meadowlarks waft over summer grasslands and farms in eastern North America. The birds themselves sing from fenceposts and telephone lines or stalk through the grasses, probing the ground for insects with their long, sharp bills. On the ground, their brown-and-black dappled upperparts camouflage the birds among dirt clods and dry grasses. But up on perches, they reveal bright-yellow underparts and a striking black chevron across the chest.

Doug Harrop Photography • February 10, 1978
As I have browsed through Mr. Harrop's amazing slide collection, there have been surprises along the way. Doug made at least three trips to the west side of the Salt Lake Valley to photograph Kennecott Copper's ore hauling operations.
KCC 406 and 402 are tied to a train of ore loads from the Bingham Canyon Mine. The GE electric duo await departure from Coppperton Yard for the ore dumpers in Magna, Utah for smelting.

I have a copy of this important document. I bought it many years ago. Here photographed with an added feather pen.

Love these funky looking moths, and nice to have such a recognisable species!!
Upton Magna - Shropshire (May 18)
Kennecott Copper Corp. 125-ton GE “Magna Motors” No. 406 and 403 pull 90 loads of Bingham Canyon copper ore through Bacchus, Utah the afternoon of April 8, 1977.
Removed by Col Hanmer Warrington on behalf of the Prince Regent in 1817 from their site near Tripoli, these ruins eventually found their way into the Southern end of Windsor Great Park next to Virginia Water.
