About Me

My photo
Hi I'm Laura Hickman. Writer, sewist, baker, fairytalemaker. When I'm not writing a delicious fantasy with my husband Tracy Hickman, I'm up to my elbows creating with yarn, frosting, cloth, or paint. I love playing with my grandkids, outdoor photography & travel. Join me at http:// bakingoutsidethebox.com as I share my creations including my Baking Outside the Box mix method for all sorts of fabulous desserts. Invictus by William Ernest Henley, is my favorite poem. Especially the final stanza: It matters not how strait the gate, how charged with punishments the scroll. I am the master of my fate, I am the captain of my soul.

Window On Lake Powell

Recently I had the privilege of spending a week at Lake Powell.  I love the rocks!  There are plenty of them at the lake. :)  I never tire of searching for new views to photograph.   We stayed in Rock Creek Canyon and had a beautiful beach, sun and cool water to play in.  Here are the pictures I've chosen to share with you: (Click for larger view.)
This window rock is near Antelope Marina

I kept seeing things in the rocks.
Helloooo Mr. Lincoln!
Dubbed this one:  Knife's Edge
You know I'm always chasing rainbows.
Sunset on the rocks.
I just had to include this one.  We played the craziest game of Watermelon Keep-away with mini melons. Soooo fun. (No we did not eat it later.)  Wish you had been there.
