STAYCATION 2009
Brought to you by the letters T & L
I guess we can't really call it a "stay"-cation if we camped in my inlaws RV. : )
However, only 2 county lines were crossed. Here are the highlights...
one Winnebago.
two ecstatic kids.
three nights.
four "To Do's".
Mom's pick: alpine slide
We stretched this a bit and went to Snowbird for the day.
climbing wall. bungee tramp. tram ride. hiking. alpine slide. zipline. mechanical bull. lots of smiles.
CHECK.
Dad's pick: camping
We camped up American Fork canyon and hiked to Timpanogos Cave
stalactites. tinfoil dinners. roasted mellows. river sitting. outhouses... & oh yeah, a mattress & clean sheets. more smiles.
CHECK.
Jack's pick: Water Park & the Dinosaur Museum...still not sure how he got 2.
We were in the parking lot of Seven Peaks 1 hour before it opened....in the Minnie Winnie 300. sun. most crazy half-pipe slide. laziest river ever...literally stagnant. all smiles.
tyranosaurus rex. fossils. questions for the universe. IMAX about Africa. intellectual dizziness.
CHECK.
Aspen's pick: bowling
We stopped at Bountiful Bowl....again, in the Minnie Winnie.
stinky shoes. smelly joint. just the right ball. plenty o' gutters. nothin' but smiles.
CHECK.
good times. farewell summer.

LOVE. IT. LIZA. It looks like you guys had a blast!! Oh, and BTW, that pic of you on the bull could be the best picture I have seen in a VERY LONG time! :)
What you didn't want to drive cross country with the fam? And as if my kids weren't already totally jealous of your "cool new ride" now you had to go and describe what could quite possibly be their dream vacation. And I ain't kidding. Gotta be honest-it kinda sounds perfect to me too:)
Gotta love the Staycation! Glad you guys had a great time!
a good time had by all. mission accomplished.
Sounds like a blast. I like that each of your picked one thing to do.
Bull riding? Really? You don't know what I would have paid for that front row seat.
Love it! Sounds like so much fun. What a great idea.
You are a great writer! I love the description, felt like I was there!!
