Snapshot #236: Eyring Science Center

February 18, 2011.  Provo, Utah.  After a recruiting session for Jordan, Dave and I made our way back to the car through the Eyring Science Center on BYU campus.  This pendulum is pretty cool.  I am far from a science major, but I think it rotates with the axis of the earth.  I remember visiting it with my family as a little girl.

February 16, 2011.  Salt Lake City, Utah.  I took several wrong turns on my way back to the office today after doing a house call.  I didn't mind too much; it was even more beautiful the closer I got to the mountains.  I managed to snap this shot at a stop sign before the car behind me started to honk.

Snapshot #225: 2011 Planner

February 2, 2011.  Orem, Utah.  The last five years I have scheduled my life by a planner provided me by the textile vendor Maharam.  This year's planner failed to arrive, so I printed my own in a similar format.  I LIVE by my planner.  

Snapshot #224: Kitchen Hood Design

February 1, 2011.  Draper, Utah.  This particular hood is scheduled to install in front of an existing window...hmmm...too bad the cooktop is already installed.
