This Is The Place

I can hardly believe it but we actually got all caught up on the things we needed to do and had some free time to do whatever we wanted to. So, I left it up to Spencer to decide on what to do. We decided to hit up a virtual cach at This Is The Place Heritage Park. It was a multi-cach were one hit would then lead us to another. We were suppose to find answers to questions along the way. We got to see the different monuments they have at the park. My favorite was the Pony Express, the statue was beautiful and it was interesting to read about the contrast and symbolism built into it. We also saw a monument for Anson Call, an ancestor of Spencer's. I'm looking forward to the day when we have kids and we can take them up to see a monument dedicated to one of their ancestors. I wish that we had remembered our camera. It was a beautiful day and the view down into the valley was wonderful.

I love little "Day Excursions." You guys are also reminding me of things I've never done in SLC...whoops.
