Lehi, Utah

Well, here we are in Utah and I didn't bring the cord to download pictures from the camera. This will be the thousand word method.

Sue-anne, Langley and Carter arrived in Lethbridge at 6:50 on Tuesday morning and we spent the day traveling to Utah. It rained a bit as we drove along. It was green, green, green in Montana. I don't think I have ever seen the hills so green there. We stopped for lunch at Subway in Dillon and stopped for gas at Ulm and Pocatello and arrived in Lehi by 8:00 p.m.

Wednesday was a beautiful day and we went out walking. The five children had a water fight in the afternoon. Everyone but me went to Cabellas to look at the fish after supper.

Langley and Carter's main objective (well other than visiting with their Uncle, Aunt and cousins and riding for twelve boring hours with their grandparents) was to go to "The Hatch Family Chocolate L.L.C.". Apparently it has something to do with a TV show (The Little Chocolatiers). We arrived there within minutes of the 11:00 a.m. opening and got in line to buy hand dipped chocolates. Langley thought the chocololates were the best she had ever tasted, but they didn't hold a candle to Tara's chocolates. Carter was quite disappointed that Steve and Katie from the TV series were not there. Was the company named after Bob's great-grandmother, Arabelle Jane Hatch?

The chocolate shop was in downtown Salt Lake, so we were very close to the Family History Library and it was the first time I didn't start drooling as we got near it. I remember the many thousands of hours that I sat in front of a microfilm reader winding through a film. It doesn't compare to finding original documents on the web, so I don't have much need to go to the Library anymore.

Another objective that Carter and Langley had was to go to "Five Guys, Burgers and Fries", so we met Darwin there for lunch. If you like 'loud' that was the place to go. The burgers were good though.

We did a little shopping before we came home. Bob and I each bought a pair of shoes. Amber tells me my shoes are "in"!
