A Picnic In the Mountains

Sunday, September 4th--It's Labor Day Weekend. The sun is shining, it's beautiful and a perfect Sunday afternoon to take a drive up American Fork Canyon and have a picnic. We packed a lunch and some snacks and found a great area with picnic tables and restrooms. It was so nice to be around trees! We spotted several curious chipmunks and squirrels, probably hoping we'd chuck a bite or two in their direction (we're not admitting anything!). The air was fresh and the river flowing nearby sounded wonderful! After we ate our lunch we went on a walking trail. It ended up near a visitors center. We went inside and watched a movie on caves. This excited Elise so she and Nate made plans to head up to Timpanogas cave the next day.

We had so much fun! We decided we need to do this more often!
