A NICE BREAK FROME SLC

Well, we got a chance to escape from SLC for the weekend! We left to Morgan (Ogden Canyon) to Linda's Grandpa (mothers) @ grandpa Noyes 90th b-day party. He and his wife had 13 children and at the b-day party, well over 200 people attended, mostly children and grandchildren and great....so on.... It was a nice drive and a gorgeous day! We were going to go to Bear Lake after but we ended up there to late. So we headed to Cache Valley / Logan to see my family and Pops. It is good seeing him, and I know he misses us. My sister pre-invited us to spend the night at here house and sleep in her camper trailer. Great Idea!! The next day we made a slow start to getting to Bear Lake, but around 11am we headed 35 minutes through Logan canyon to Bear Lake - Utahs best kept secret... Anyways it was Sunday so we packed a lunch and headed to the beach on the north shore. We swam in the refresing water for a few hours and then got out and ate. (I did get stuck in the sandy beaches with my jeep, but got out unharmed) We were both sun soaked and stuffed. Felt great and relaxing. Then we left to go back to logan and regroup for a dinner party with my nephew and great nephew and neice. We stopped at Toni's Grove (Logan Canyon) and took a power nap over looking the awesome scenery. We had a great remaining evening chatting and eating at my sisters around an old familiar table. I sure do miss Logan and wish some how I could live and work there. Chatting with my family was my hightlight and playing with the kids and holding a baby. Linda trampled off to the park (mini zoo) and showed the kids the animals that are awake during the night - they loved it! Then we said our goodbyes and headed back to the big city. It was a great relaxing fun weekend filled with happy memories!!
