A Day in Salt Lake


Off we went to Salt Lake to be tourist...Mom wanted photos of the Salt Lake temple and I delivered....We toured the new Conference Center and parts of the Square..


After the temple we headed to the zoo..It was hot so thank goodness they have mist blowing....The kids were able to see all their relatives in one spot....




I've never done a planterium before..it was interesting..Alex of course loved it..We saw a dome IMax movie that made my stomach revolt....

Cascade Springs





Love the drive in the mountains...We went the back way..ie dirt road...to Cascade Springs...beautiful, flowing water..with lots of signs of "do not fish"...The kids were tempted though.....

Midway

This is our resort...love it......
local flair...reminds us of parts of Europe...


Crater....there are a ton here...We didn't know what they were for till we looked it up...The hot water in the ground pushed up and formed these craters...The kids love looking in each...

One can scuba dive in this one...the water is warm...

Family Ties

Logan Temple...
Peter's ancestors from his mother's father's side are from Logan,UT....On our way down to Midway we stopped at the local family restaurant for some fantastic shakes and then off to see the old homestead....Peter's mom was born in this house...Her great grandfather built this house..beautiful.....We snapped a photo while no one was home...fast......
