Parks

Just like everything, the economy has taken its toll on our State Parks, and I get it we need to cut back to survive. It still makes me a little sad though. Our state parks are some of the coolest places on the earth.

Goblin Valley is like traveling to another planet, expect with nice things like an atmosphere and oxygen.

Antelope Island is beautiful, even with the many bugs. Plus there are buffalo.

Snow Canyon is a wind swept giant sandbox that any little kid would love.

Gunlock changes every year with the weather. New rains bring new scenery.

Ride you bike from Park City to Wanship and have a picnic, your kids will love it and it's all down hill.

But there are tons of parks to see, and all so near by. So as I slowly climb off my state parks soap box, I recommend that you grab your hot dog sticks, your fishing pole, sunblock, and chips, and lets go see our parks.

Pop Culture

I love my sweet husband; pop culture references are not his forte. The other day we were watching a movie and he said "Hall and Oates are two people?!" I said "Yeah" "Oh, I always thought it was 'Haulin' Oats'. Good times.

Another time we were surfing channels and I happened to stop one of the many dancing shows on TV these days. The Osbournes (the ant sniffing, mumbling, swear like a sailor family) were in the audience cheering and clapping. Mike then turned to me and said "Those Osbournes are good Mormons" After I stopped laughing, I managed to say "You mean the Osmonds, right".

But I can't be too hard on him. It took me until my adulthood , yep I was at the university, to figure out the joke to the old cereal commercial 'Nut n Honey'. You remember "What ya eating?" "Nut n Honey". So after a long time I finally figured out that they were saying 'Nothing Honey', hence the laughter.

I'm so glad we have each other. Nothing makes me happier than laughing hard with my guy.
