Utah in July with Clarke and Char and kids!

 After carpooling to Utah we arrived at ST. George at the Doughty's home. They have been kind enough to have us at their family reunions the past 2 years. Of course the kids were in the water fast. There was a heat wave and the temp was 117......HOT!
                                               Clarke looks so much like his dad.
 One of the activities we did was to go to the Tuacan and see Mary Poppins. Andrew and Lucy were able to go with us. It was well worth every penny and sitting outdoors in temp of 108!
                       Carolyn, Jared, Clarke, Andrew , Lucy, Char and I at Mary Poppins.
                                                                       Sweet!
                                         Married for 36 years of adventure! Love you hunny!!!!
  Char and Gracie at Mammoth. We spent a day up at Mammoth.It is in the mountains and gorgeous. The Doughtys have a retreat with cabins and lots of outdoor activities. It was so nice to get out of the 118 heat and have only 90 heat. We had a great day. Thanks Bill and Carolyn.
                                               Lucy and Jared at the outdoor amphitheatre.
A highlight was a wade in the freezing river. Jared is always so accommodating and helpful when we are with grand kids. Keeping Gracie and Char afloat!!
                      The view of the river near their retreat.... the air was so crisp and clean.
                        Andrew with his fishing pole! He is 9 years old and I can hardly believe this!
Elise was having some bonding time with Jared. He was so happy the she is starting to like to spend time with him. She is a doll.
