A PIECE OF HEAVEN ON EARTH

THANKSGIVING POINT GARDENS...

REALLY.

I have never been here before.
I have always been told that the gardens were
spectacular
and that I should definitely go there someday

But I never went...

But today I felt like doing something different
So, after many years of pushing this off
I finally went

I truly think that I was the only one there today
I couldn't have asked for anything more

Gabe and I took a casual stroll on what I will consider
probably the most gorgeous place in utah

Yes, the red rocks of St. George and Moab are spectacular
or mount timp when you wake up in the morning and hear the birds chirping is also a sight to see

No one disputes that

but there is something about being all alone
surrounded by trees and flowers of all colors
in a place that seems like it was made for you

then, after you already thought you have seen it all
you discover a secret garden
in the middle of the already beautiful gardens
and that secret garden...
takes your breath away

I discovered that place
and it has become my new favorite place in Utah

Go find it for yourself
I hope you can enjoy it at least half as much as me

because it was truly
Heaven on Earth




as I was there I took a few fun shots of Gabe...
I am just sad I didn't have my nice camera!

Yes, I have a special place in my heart for the Gardens, especially the Secret Garden. :) (It's where Jared proposed to me...)

We should go together soon!

I went for my first time recently with Megs when we went to the Tuplip festival. Now that was something else, millions of tulips. I bet the rose garden is beautiful now.
Good find, isn't it?
