Torrey Snowfall - a photo on Flickriver

Torrey Snowfall

Torrey, UT

It's not THAT hot near the Southern California coast where I live, but I've been spending a LOT of time down at the pool lately. As I age here in glorious retirement (and healing from my last fall onto a concrete parking lot last month) I'm not out and about taking photos. I'm relaxing. Who knows, there might be a trip upcoming before the next real "adventure" in Central Europe come September. But I'm satisfied, it seems, for once, to stay home. (and we have a real nice pool)

Lots of folks are suffering from extreme heat this summer. I understand Sunday was the hottest day on record ever! So I went through my massive archives of photos I've never really looked at closely or processed and came up with this neat winter view of the Mayne Wonderland Cash Store in the really small town of Torrey, Utah, where I stayed the first night of my Winter Trip to Utah National Parks in February of 2023.
I've seen snow, but until that trip, I really don't have much recollection of winters in the northwest. (My parents moved from Idaho to Los Angeles when I was 3 years old) There were snow flurries overnight and I used a snow scraper for the first time ever on my windshield the next morning before going off to visit Capitol Reef National Park.

So if you're boiling this week, try to concentrate on the cool. Hopefully this photo will help. (It won't but, it's a neat photo.) The Torrey canal runs alongside the highway (State 24) and while it wasn't frozen, there were snowbanks along the sides.
