I attended INDIA FEST last night with some friends. The first temple every built in the United States specifically for the Krishna followers is in Spanish Fork, Utah (about an hour south of Salt Lake) The temple is gorgeous and the event was a lot of fun. Very interesting to experience the Krishna culture, dance, art and most of all eat the incredible vegetarian cuisine. The final ceremony of the night was the burning of a wooden statue of the ancient king Ravana. The festival was fun and everyone from the temple was incredibly welcoming and nice. I wouldn't be surprised if I found myself visiting the temple again soon.

WHY SALT LAKE IS SO COOL
A fifteen minute drive can take you from downtown Salt Lake City, onto an epic mountain road like this. We took a late afternoon drive yesterday just to explore in the mountains. We pulled over climbed on top of this big rock and I snapped this particular shot at about 7:00pm

Oregon Trip
After only having moved into our house in Salt Lake for three days, we decided to take a road trip for a few days of summer skiing at Mt. Hood. The skier featured in the photo movie is my roommate Matthew Pothier.
