Road Trip...brought to you by the Library

Luke in a mini cave in Jenny's Canyon

Our picnic spot on an overlook.  You can't tell but we are right on the edge...Luke really wanted to be exploring and snacking, not picture taking. :)

They petrified dunes.  One of our favorites.  The sandstone was so grippy that we could just walk right up and down the little mountain dunes.  Luke was apprehensive at first, and then he went all out.  Trying to follow scouts up peaks.

So its February...Okay its March, but it feels like February.  Its keeps snowing and melting and it feels like winter will never end.  For our family this means....road trip.  This particular road trip was in large part brought to us by our local public library.  You probably knew that libraries have a whole load of DVD's to entertain your kids in the back seat during a long drive.  We picked out among others, Triego (Go Diego Go)  Luke's new favorite, the whole time we were hiking he would say I'm Triego, lets save animals.  So we found lots of lizards in trouble and even a squirrel or two.   I knew about the DVDs and that was awesome cause it was shows that were new to him (not that he cares) but I didn't have to hear the same thing over and over. 
But the cool thing I discovered is that the library rents out State Park passes just like they do books.  So we headed down to Snow Canyon, and had so much fun hiking to hidden ponds, petrified dunes, normal sand dunes to just sit and dig on, run up and down.   Luke is a little climber.  We all had so much fun and got some much needed vitamin C.
