Audrey and I went out to Salt Lake City last week to visit her folks. One of the highlights was our day hike at Antelope Island State Park. This incredible island is in the middle of the Great Salt Lake and has always been a kind of spiritual home for Audrey. Buffalo everywhere. Wide open views. If you’ve ever seen Matthew Barney’s Cremaster Cycle, remember the rodeo round-up scene in Cremaster 2? Not a lot different. Surreal!

It was my first time there, and I can see now why she loves it so much. What an amazing place! The land and sky all blur together in this vibrant magic of light, snow, salt, water, grass. Here are a few photos from the day, but be sure to look through the whole set. Truly beautiful.

  • Thanks, Joshua! This is the kind of place that it's hard *not* to take a postcard-quality photo.
