Twin rocks, located just as you go into Capitol Reef. Or 2 big mushrooms???
On the drive south we noticed this; frozen irrigation lines
Capitol Reef National Park is in southern Utah, 1 of the 5 in our state
Notice all the red rock
Sally on a curly tree
The Castle
One room school house in Fruita, UT used until 1941
One room school house where 8-26 children were taught
Petroglyphs ( prehistoric Indian drawings)
Pretty flowers
I think this looks like a dinosaur
The different colors of the rock is amazing
Is this a snake or clam shell?
Another view, looks like a snake ready to strike
This tree must be about thousand years old, ok, maybe a few hundred
Paul with the man eating tree
LDS early chapel
Free range cattle on the Gooseberry Road in Fish Lake State Park at this point we were at about 12,000 ft. above sea level that explains the snow
Coming down a very narrow, switch back road
We had a fun time, had yummy fresh baked mixed fruit pie in Fruita, went swimming at our motel, and Paul got to seat in the car while I had fun shopping. Thanks Dear. We also were able to listen to General Conference on the radio.
Crazy weather in Utah. Yesterday I was out lazing in the pool. The temperature was 87 degrees. Today it it rainy, and cold, 45 degrees. Snow in the mountains. Like I said, Crazy weather!
Last night I went to Kade's soccer game, then the kids came back with me for a sleep over. This morning; we took the train up to Salt Lake to watch the Ringling Brothers Circus Parade. They loved it!!! Then Paul met us and we went to the fountains at the Gateway for the kids to play in. Lunch at Bruges Waffles. We shared yummy cinnamon waffles, one with fresh peaches and the other with fresh strawberries. AND FRITES. YUM. Then back to Grammy and Grandpop's for swimming. Fun time was had by all!
This past Saturday we started the day with Kade's soccer game. They a played a good team, with one kid who was the star that NEVER came out for a rest. Needless to say; the other team had lots of goals. Kade had a good time; he was so funny smiling at us as he ran by.
