 And we topped off my weekend with perhaps my new favorite "Close to home" hangout spot. We grabbed Subway lunches for a picnic and headed to Glen Park in Highland to catch some rays and swim! There's a natural fed Spring pond right behind Lone Peak High school that is just the perfect temperature and great size! There were kids kayaking (or other small boats and things like stand up paddle boards) They have lots of nice trails and paths around the area (pretty sure it connects to the Murdock Canal biking trail), 3-4 docks for standing and fishing off of, and there's a great little swimming area. Dogs are even allowed (but must stay on leashed.. i think they're pretty strict about this) Water feels great! All in all its a pretty nice stop for being close to my house. I can't wait to take the boys for a run around the pond and then hop in to cool off!

Fall Carbon County ATV Tour Let me start off this post by saying that not only did this tour far exceed my expectations, but the entire area did. If you hear Carbon County, most people immediately ask "what is there to even do there," "where is that?" Then you mention "Price" which is on all the road signs when you head from SLC to Moab and you get a few nods.  WELL, time to change that.

It took about 40 min to get to the Bagel Store on Bedford Ave between 2 subway lines and less than mile of walking. Rainbow bagel with funfetti smear: perfection.

 The past week we went to California for Ty's family reunion at Shaver Lake. We drove through the night Tuesday and mistakenly our gps took us a crappy route by Highway 6 and through Yosemite... so it was slow going and a tad scary! I saw two deer on the road on our way that Ty totally missed! Woah! I was super sad that we drove through Yosemite and I couldn't see anything so we determined to go on our way home from the trip! So Saturday we woke up superrr early to have time to make some stops! so here we go....  Not 30 min. driving in the park and we see a cub black bear climbing a tree barely off the road! I made Ty turn around to snap a picture because really.. how many times do you get to be so close to one of these cute little guys? If nothing else went well... going back this long way made the trip worth it to me! We started the main loop with Bridal Veil Falls which was much weaker than it normally is... but the water dumping over the edge of a very tall and ste...
