Today we loaded up the Polaris 4-wheelers and Scott, Dad and I headed up American Fork Canyon. We unloaded the bikes at Tibble Fork and headed up the trails. OMG is was BEAUTIFUL! The sky was so blue, the foliage so many colors and green and the wild flowers, they were everywhere in reds, yellows, puples, oranges. We saw majestic trees, butterflies flying all over and the smell of the canyon was so crips, clean and sometimes even sweet. The streams were full of running water and the water was so crystal clear and cool. The temperature was in the 50's at 9,000 feet and then warmed up as we came back down the canyon. We stopped at an old mine and collected hands full of Fool's Gold. I rode with Scott this trip, and while I was riding and taking in all the beauty, I just felt loved and at peace. I was so thankful and greatful for the chances I have to go with family and LIVE!! It's so amazing that in less than an hours drive you can be away from the TV, phone and rush of traffic. You are driving along a dirt road that have a creek running to the side with huge rocks and trees and you just are so happy to be there and not at work, or at home cleaning, or anywhere else. It's like you are in another world and it is so peaceful and glorious!

A Nice Get Away!
This morning, Scott gave his new baby (his truck) a bath since it got dirty at the Family Reunion. I cleaned the house. Then, since we had nothing better to do, we jumped in the newly bathed truck and went for a relaxing, beautiful drive to Mirror Lake. Well....there was a bike race going on in that canyon! Over 1,000 bikers!! Mirror Lake was beautiful, but very, very busy! So we decided to drive to Trial Lake, it was less crowded, but not as beautiful as Mirror Lake. Then we headed to Prove River Falls. WOW!!! what a sight! It was AWESOME! We stayed there and soaked up the beauty, smells, and cool weather. It was 20 degrees cooler than in Salt Lake City.

Family Reunion Time
Every year we go to Pineview for our Family Reunion. The weather was GREAT this year, not too hot. We ate great food, played card games, made jewelry, told jokes and ghost stories and had a great week of fun in the sun and in the water! Time sure does fly when you are having fun. Everyone was at camp this year, even my brother and his family from Nevada! It was a very enjoyable reunion this year!
Scott still looks GREAT on one ski!
Yep, that's me on a wake board!

HEY BATTER. BATter, Batter.....S-W-I-N-G Batter!!
I have grown up with BASEBALL...my grandfather was a baseball fanatic! Him and his brother would go to the World Series every year!! I remember as a youngster we would go to Derks Field and sit on the old woooden bleachers and watch the game. So...now that my dad is doing great after his cancer surgery....he wanted to go too a Bee's Game. So we went out and had some good old fashion fun as a family! Too BAD we lost. BUMMER!!!
