Modern pen pals meeting up -- a good thing.

The attached shot is the best photo from yesterday. I took about 350 shots at Bear River MBR and Farmington Bay WMA, but this shot is my favorite. It shows me finally meeting Luen, another Hog, at Farmington Bay WMA. Luen's lovely daughter took it on my iPhone.

The shot means a lot to me because from my first posts on UHH, Luen has sent me PMs encouraging and advising me. She lives in the next suburb from me up towards downtown Salt Lake, but we have never met. Fortunately, her avatar and her descriptions of how her daughter drives her to the refuges enabled me to meet her.

Luen is 96 years young, a life long Utah resident. She started down south in St. George and now lives in West Jordan. If it can be hiked or climbed in Utah, she has done it. She epitomizes the community of UHH with her willingness to help.

Oh my goodness, what a shock to see this photo of Mike and me! This is an even bigger surprise than him recognizing me at my favorite birding place! It is amazing to me the close friendship I feel with many of you Hoggers and would also love to meet more of you in person. I not only thank you, Mike, for those kind words, I also thank you other fellow Hoggers for yours. This is a joyful experience to actually meet in person someone we feel we know from just viewing the photos you post. I thank all of you for brightening my day each morning!

Beautiful picture and beautiful story. It's nice that you finally met face to face. I just checked out a few of Luen's posts, it looks like she has a lot of knowledge and talent to share. Good mentor to have.


I appreciate your visit, Jimmy. She is a wonderful person.
