The Cave and more Slideshow!!!!

The Trail to the Cave of Wonders...

Mom and dad are visiting us this weekend! It has been so nice to have them here and show them around. Today we went to church in the morning and then went on a short hike to a cave Taylor and I wanted to explore. We saw the cave on our way back down from Squaw Peak. The hike wasn't too long and it wasn't too steep. Dad and mom really enjoyed the Autumn colors and scenery. We took a ton of pictures. Here are some of our adventures.

Squaw Peak!

So, this weekend has been beautiful. The weather is in the 70s and it was the perfect time to go hike Squaw Peak. Squaw Peak is a 8 mile hike round trip. Taylor and I did it in about 3 and a half hours. It got really, extremely steep. We were dirty and tired by the time we were done, but we were filled with a great sense of accomplishment. Here are some of our pictures. The leaves were not AS brilliant as a few weeks before, but it was still beautiful. We also made friends with this guy and his rhodesian ridgeback dog. I couldn't believe the dog made it up there. Taylor and I were impressed with the dog. His stature was intimidating, but he was just one of the friendliest dogs we've met. I think we'd be interested in a dog like that. I would definitely feel safe at home with that kind of dog.

It's been awhile...

So, we mostly haven't blogged because nothing interesting has really happened. However, let me just update you on a couple of things. Last week Taylor and I went to Salt Lake City to the Hogle Zoo. It wasn't very impressive. It actually just made you feel bad for the animals. So, we didn't take any pictures there, but we stopped at Heritage Park. Heritage Park is where the "This is the Place" monument is at. So, we stopped there and took some pictures. It was actually snowing earlier, but at the moment we were taking pictures it wasn't. After wards, we hung out with Allyson and her boyfriend Drew in Salt Lake. We saw an interesting park that had Joseph Smith's face on the Sphinx. It was all gospel based, but completely strange. We don't have any pictures of the park unfortunately.



First try! We thought the picture didn't take!



We got it right the second time!
