2006 Spring Break

April 22, 2006 by Scott

We went camping in Green River, Utah for our spring break this year. It was actually a very nice camp right on the Green River. We had a relaxing couple of days, some good food, and a very interesting trip to a cold water geyser (pictures below). If you are ever in the Green River area, the geyser is a must see. The mineral deposits it has left (and that you can walk all through) are amazing. One the way back to Alpine, we stopped off at Arches National Park and hiked to Delicate Arch, in addition to driving through the park. That was a first for Mark and Brian. It was pretty hot that day, so we were glad to get back to the car and some nice air conditioning!

These are all the deposits that are left by the geyser. You can walk all over them.

2005 Las Vegas Bowl

December 21, 2005 by Scott

BYU playing in the Las Vegas bowl against California, and since it was so close, we decided to drive down and see the game. Sue went with us, but didn't want to go to the game, so she chilled out in the hotel (just prior to Christmas is a GREAT time to go to Vegas–the hotel rooms were extra cheap. We got rooms in the Excalibur for $30).

Mark and Brian in front of the van they helped decorate.

Tuacahn 2005

September 27, 2005 by Sue Leave a Comment

Here’s a photo of us leaving the hotel in St. George to drive out to Tuacahn. We saw Disney’s “Beauty and the Beast” which was really good and had wonderful sets and costumes. We also saw “Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat” which was super fun. It was set in St. George and started with the Narrator telling her one-room schoolhouse about the story of Joseph and the brothers were local farmers, the Ishmaelites were bikers, and Joseph gets sent to Egypt which is Las Vegas. It was totally hilarious. Potiphar was a casino owner, his wife was a Marilyn Monroe look-alike, and the Pharoah was Elvis, of course. It was so fun! When the brothers remember “Those Canaan Days”, they sat at an outdoor movie and watched a B&W of themselves. So clever. The whole show was great.
