Working from home has bought me about an hour-and-a-half of commute time back every day, and I still feel like I work the same number of hours--just hours that actually help my company instead of the big oil companies. One of my personal therapies is to get out into the mountains (as can be seen throughout this site).
Here are a few photos from some my recent local hikes, mostly in Payson Canyon, Santaquin Canyon and Pole Canyon, the three canyons nearest to my home. I tend to go early in the morning or right before sunset, so the light can be challenging for photography, but these places are not very high, so I go during the coolest times of the day. My wife is convinced that I will fall off a cliff or get eaten by a bear sometime. I tell her that I generally don't go where the cliffs are dangerous, and I'm too noisy to surprise a bear. I'm more likely to be eaten by a mountain lion. Somehow that doesn't comfort her. I'm not sure myself how I will exit this life, but nobody gets out of this place alive, so maybe those are as good ways to go as any. At least the views are nice.
