On Tuesday this week I decided to go and visit my family in Logan. They had been raving about the fall leaves and since where I am the leaves left something to be desired. So the plan was to get up there early and go on a nice hike. Well when I woke up it looked something like this.
It was raining pretty hard but I decided to go anyways and hope that there would be a break in the rain. Aside from the almost accident I got into because someone was being a stupid driver it was a nice drive through the canyon. I even got a pretty got shot.
While it was raining and waiting for the kids to get home from school, my mom and I kept our selves busy. We went shopping, made applesauce and had a great time visiting. Finally in the late afternoon the sun broke through! So I grabbed my sisters and we headed up to check out the views.
Ahh, fall. It's so pretty. It's like an image. =)
Goofy sisters. They LOVE having their picture taken. NOT!
The trails were really muddy and so we played around the parking lot.
Pretty good view. I'll take it.
It wouldn't be a trip home without a bit of manual labor. My parents have been doing some serious remolding of their house and they were getting new carpet in their living room the next day. So to save on some money family work project to get all the old carpet up and out of there.
It didn't take that long.
It was a fun visit and I am glad that I went since now there is snow in the mountains and it is freezing. Fall why did you have to leave so fast?
