Park City, Summer 2012

We decided last Feb to spend as much time in Park City as we could and just get out of the Vegas heat....Park City is one of our favorite places in the world, and it was so wonderful and relaxing to be there and to be able to hike and bike as much as we wanted.   It was also great to have family come up and visit us, we were able to spend quite a bit of time with Sammi and that is always a plus.  






When we first got to Utah, we spent the first few days in our old neighborhood for the 4th of July and to celebrate Brad and Sammi's Birthday's.   There was a huge fire on the mountain right behind our old home...it was really scary, but after two days, it was under control, but because of the fire and how dry everything in the area was, all fireworks were banned....

My dear friend of 43 years, Jenny, flew in from Seattle for a 5 day visit.  We wanted to celebrate our Birthdays.  We both turned the big 50 this year.  We had a great time and did a hike we will never forget (again, sorry Jen) we saw a great play, Chicago and had some great meals....It is a wonderful thing in this life to have such a dear friend.  







 



We hiked up to Bridal Vail Falls in the Provo Canyon.  That walk is so beautiful and the falls great....







Jenny and I also went to Sundance and had lunch in Bob's backyard...your know Robert Redford.  Well maybe not his accual backyard, but close.  We enjoyed lunch and a beautiful chairlift ride to enjoy the beauty of Sundance.  


 
 

 


We were also able to spend some time in Grantsville with Brad's family and do a bit of camping in South Willow Canyon...we enjoyed a few peaceful evening under the beautiful Utah sky's....

 

 



I was also able to talk my Sister-in-Law, Sandy, into a hike in Park City.  We had the perfect day and the wild flowers were perfect....

I loved spending all that perfect time with my wonderful husband of 28 years.....Hope to do it again next year.....
