Another picture of my model 

They look like tounges 

These Iris are my favorite flowers of the garden. 

It's been one busy week. Had my last Studio review of the semester. It went relatively well. Here a shot of my final model. The design was apartment buildings surrounding 5 gardens representing 5 Feng Shui elements, metal, earth, fire, water, wood.

Terri ripping up the slopes at Alta. 

another one from Alta 

Terri and I went up to Alta today for their last day of the season. The weather was beautiful. The snow was classic spring conditions, soft and slushy. Terri skiied awesome, but her SPF 15 lotion didn't quite do the trick and she got a little burnt.

Real Salt Lake won today!

Real Salt Lake

Salt Lake's new MLS soccer team, Real Salt Lake plays today. Keep and eye out for them. It's their home opener, but unfortunately Terri and I aren't able to go. They play on ESPN 2 I think.

New tulips are blooming in our flower gardens 

Some more of Terri's freshly planted flowers. I think we might open up a flower nursery with all the flowers we have at our place. 

A Day in the Life of 2 Ts

A Day in the Life of 2 TsExciting day today. First day of wearing shorts. Terri and I are having our friends Matt and Jessica over for some badminton, grilling, and a little Alias.

Ask, and you shall recieve. Except no one asked. T2 and I really have no idea how many people pay attention to our little blog. You can leave comments you know. This is from our backyard. We put in a flagstone path and installed some more solar lights along it. Looks kind of nice at night. 

Coming soon...

Nothing much to report or see today, but if you're lucky I'll get something put up tonight. However, if you really need a fix, T1 photos has been updated.

Stressed skin structure

Another project for my Materials and Construction class. This was an open-air structure for a place for meditation or transition. No, it wasn't actually built, just Photoshop magic.

The tree are all starting to bloom down in the valley. It'll be nice to get up into the mountains when all the wildflowers start to bloom. Won't be for a while though with all the snow they've gotten. Over 600" this year. 

This is from Liberty Park, which is about a block from our house. It rained and snowed most of the day. About 9" up in the mountains. There's quite the contrast between the mountains and the green grass in the park. 

So, apparently I'm becoming quite the flower photographer expert. If only because Terri keeps wanting me to take pictures of our flowers. I'll be busy all year seeing as how we planted 700 bulbs in our garden that will come up through summer. This beauty, however, is our Orchid from inside the house.

This is a Minnesota architect, formerly of Bludot. I guess he teaches, or taught at UofM, but no one really liked him that I knew. But this house system is pretty cool. And the website is pretty interesting. Prefab housing is a cool idea that you should look into if you're planning on building a house.

Here you can see all of our daffodils blooming. Terri has them planted in two big flower beds that surround the front of the house. There are about 100 blooming right now.
