Southern Utah is one of my favorite places on Planet Earth..so many options for adventure!  I love it!!  Nature just “sings” in this area.  I’m so grateful to be able explore the local canyons in search of springs and plants…it’s an ADVENTURELAND…for the senses…on every level!!

Here’s a few clips from one of our recent runs up to get wet, in one of the local spring fed canyons!!  Barefoot running and being barefoot, really is a joy, and has amazing health benefits.  If you haven’t read Christopher Mcdougall’s book, “Born to Run” yet…pick up a copy ASAP, gripping…from beginning to end!!  Also, YouTube…David Wolfe and Barefoot Technology.  Great info..coming out of the barefoot world.  My shoes hardly come on anymore..I LOVE IT.  Gardening barefoot is a..MUST!!

In this first video..check out the size and growth of these berries.  They grow right up the side of the cliff, slurping up cold spring water under neath them.  Gotta love that spring water!!

Hard for me to believe, this is the desert.  The Native American people and other early immigrants to this area grew strong in these parts, thanks to the water, volcanic soils and climate.  In these last two videos you can see and hear the power of a true spring.  Smiles just leap onto your face when standing in places like these.

So grateful to be able to play in this area of the world!!  This is in one of the canyons not far from Zion National Park.

Thanks for coming a long on the adventure.

More updates coming from the garden and growing dome…next week, lots of changes!!

I LOVE Summertime!!!!

These videos follow Daniel Vitalis as he first..”stalks some wild chaga“, then prepares it..showing one of his methods for ingesting this noble mushroom.  The last two videos..show a GREAT example..of him preparing one of his protein elixirs..for MAJOR energy, supporting workouts..and LIFE..in general!!

Check out danielvitalis.com for regular updates..and his recent posts on this subject!  Thanks Daniel!

Have fun..preparing your own..ELIXIRS!

In this video, John Kohler, from GROWINGYOURGREENS, shows a couple of seed companies he uses.  His videos are absolutely some of the best urban gardening videos on the net…SO INFORMATIVE!!
