Summer's Over

We tried to make the most of this last summer weekend and explored Tibble Fork Resevoir up American Fork Canyon. They had just stocked the resevoir with 1200 rainbow trout...so there were a lot of people fishing.
Sophie found a very large and friendly playmate.

We also joined Adam's family at the Utah State Capital to view an original copy of The Declaration of Independence. The wait was 3 hours to view it up close, so we chose to view from a far! But, still very cool. Adam's dad told us some family history...that their relative Edward Ruttledge signed the Declaration of Independence...and another relative, last name Seuele was an indentured servant on the Mayflower. So, I guess you can say we've come along way since indentured servitude...well...maybe.
