I do love watching the Bear River downtown. It is a very relaxing place to hang out and doesn't usually get too noisy except when the salmon are running and there are a lot of fisherman here. A quiet, green place with water is a great place to read a book. A century ago though, this was a very different place. There were at least 3 different mills on this section of the river and 3 different dams to create energy. It was a busy place with lots of workers and industry. In fact, if you walk the trail along the side of the river, you can still see remnants of walls and pipes coming out of the ground here and there. What a difference a century makes!

Looking Up
This dome is in the ceiling of a church. I love the stars in the dome and when just this light is on, it is very calm and quiet. I've tried to count the stars from time to time, but the count never seems to come out the same. I just enjoy the stars and the quiet from time to time anyway.
