Grandma left this afternoon to spent the weekend with her sister in Idaho. My uncle is heading to Montana and is dropping her off and picking her up on the way to and fro. I am kind of excited to have a free weekend. I have no idea what I will do with myself. Perhaps Austin and I will go for a hike or to a movie. Or do nothing.
Monday Austin and I took Grandma for a drive along the Alpine Loop. The Alpine Loop is a scenic byway that starts in American Fork canyon continues past Sundance (yes, the ski resort owned by Robert Redford), and ends in Provo. If you are ever in Utah I highly recommend taking this little side trip. The weather was cloudy, the camera was not ideal, and my child deleted most of the pictures he took but here are a few.

| This is called "The Theatre in the Pines" and is not too far from Sundance. It is a shame that it doesn't seem to be in use anymore. |

| A little wild flower. |

Utah is beautiful just about any time of the year in one way or another. I like Austin's picture, too. What part of ID is Grandma headed to? Enjoy your time off. I hope you find something fun to do. When does Austin go to school?
I LOVE that you took a picture of the Theater in the Pines! That was my favorite place to go as a family on Sunday outings. I'd heard that you can't go up there anymore--but apparently you can! Maybe I'll take my little family up there!
I miss the Loop! I feel a Sunday drive coming on!
Oh- and that little wildflower is called Cranesbill and/or Wild Geranium.
