Phil and I especially enjoyed speaking to Sheri at the Split Rock Gallery who introduced us to beautiful art, high end architecture and Snow Canyon.
{Snow Canyon}
American Earth Rim
.
Leopard print hills are just
out in the Mohave desert
south and east of Las Vegas.
.
To the north of The Rim
sits St. George among steeples
of church and mountain.
.
Many times a year eighteen
galleries open to the night
to be closed by curfew.
.
Architects build on black lava rock
just beneath the peaking faces
of snow canyon
the quilted hills
diminish a climbing figure and crawl
slowly back into a covered earth.
.
Just miles away from the spotted hills
stained south of The Rim.
