Day 3 in Utah






Daddy's old house. He used to bike everywhere as a kid. And he also went a lot of place s grandmother told him not to go. But, I would assume you could all presume that about him.
The other house with the big tree is Grandmother Ellis' old house. Dad said it seemed like forever to get there as a kid. Friday was the tour of dad's old life. We also went to the cemetery. We were looking for Grandmother Ellis' grave and Hinkley's as well, but we did find Kimball's. It was really cool and as I stood there taking the picture of the grave I knew he was a real prophet of God. We went to the This is the place monument. There was a lot to see there. It was pretty interesting. Those pioneers had a hard trek. After that we were pretty starved so we ate at some Texas steak place. They have some work to do if they want to be more authentic. First of all, they need to say yall instead of you guys. Secondly, they need to have Texas size portions. It was just little snack. But after that, we went to visit Aunt Diana. She is pretty cool. She looks just like Grandmother. It was fun to visit with her. We had to rush over to Nancy's but we did get to visit her for a few minutes before we had to rush to the airport to catch our flight. Overall, it was a really good trip and it got me really pumped up for BYU. I love Utah. I didn't want to leave. It is so pretty.
