The Big 06

The Big 06

A while back we decided to do two different type of birthdays for Lily (Friends & Family).  This year was a family birthday so we decided to spend the weekend camping in one of our favorite areas, Heber, Utah.  Previously we stayed at the Wasatch Mountain State Park, but this time we decided to check out Jordanelle State Park.  The two parks are only about 30 minutes apart so generally they are in the same area.  Jordanelle is very popular…

Birthday at Wasatch Mountain

Birthday at Wasatch Mountain

Watching the sun set last night on Antelope Island reminded me of a vacation many years ago to Marco Island in Florida.  Every…

Birthday at Utah Lake State Park

Birthday at Utah Lake State Park

This seems to be a good October place as the weather is not really cold at this elevation.  The campground is just ok but we have always enjoyed our stays here.  We were in Arches for my Birthday and wouldn’t you know it we are camping again for Ashley’s birthday (Dont tell her but I think I won with my birthday destination). While at Utah Lake we meet Leigh and Brian, AKA Aluminarium.  Brian was nice enough to offer up some…
