Our first hike takes us to Stewart Falls. Donny and Alyssa and baby R were able to come with us. The fall leaves were coming in and it was just gorgeous!
Geology term: Creep - slow downslope movement. It causes the trees to bend. Pretty neat! |
Next, we drove up to Squaw Peak and really enjoyed the view of Utah Valley. Squaw Peak is supposedly known as a make-out spot, so we didn't pass up the opportunity. ;)

Different view from our "secret" spot ;) |
Last, but not least, we went to Red Ledges and the Sun-stone Arch. The arch is not completely formed, but in years to come I am sure it will become more prominent. After walking around, we made a fire and roasted hot dogs, and marshmallows! The stars were amazing!
The Poduska family joined us for our little adventure! |
Not only do we have a little time for nature, but for attending the Provo Temple. This past Sunday the Ogden Temple was rededicated and President Monson gave three "sermonettes" that stood out to me. He said to "love the temple, appreciate the temple, and attend the temple". I love that! It is short and sweet, but really helps me remember how important temple work is and that I have been so blessed by going and serving the Lord.
