WHAT A BEAUTIFUL WORLD.............

Last Monday, Todd and Danelle called and ask us to meet them up the A F Canyon. So Jim, I and Sydney hopped in the Tundra and took off. They said they would meet us at Cascade Springs, on the back side of Timp. This is looking back at Timp. See the snow still left! It was a beauty of a day. When we got to Cascade Springs, we found that they had gone down stream from the springs to fish and so we went to find them. We had to cross the stream a few times. I thought this was a beautiful sight , so wanted to share the view.
There were butterflies all over. Many different sizes. I think they must have just hatched. Most were this size, but every once in awhile a BIG yellow and black monarch would fly by. It was awesome.

At last we found them, and Shay said " Stop"


Sydney jumped out and joined Shay, Colt, Rachel (shay's neighbor friend) and
Nelly ( shay's new puppy) They loved the water. It was just right in temp.



This was just a big mud puddle, but they had fun playing in it.
We tried to drive on down the stream and see if we would come out in Provo
Canyon, but we hit some spots that were straight up!!!!!! and rocky. We tried a few, and made them( with the help of Syd's prayer) but they just kept on getting steeper and we were not sure where we would end up, so we turned around and
returned the way we came. ( Syd kept saying , We are gonna Die!) I feared for my life too some times. Jim just laughed. I guess I was not cut out to be a 4-wheeler.
When we got back to Cascade Springs, we stopped and walked around a little.
This is a fish we saw. There were a lot of them, but they just ignored us!
It was a fun day. And we made it home ALiVe!!!!!!! Thanks Father in Heaven, for all your beautiful creations that we can go and enjoy.
