Utah times

A few weeks ago my wonderful friend Lorie came to visit me in Logan for a few days. We met in Toronto where we were each attending school but now we both find ourselves in Utah. She's just a few hours south of us. The little boys and I gave her a tour of their favourite places in town; we saw the Gossner cheese factory where we sampled and purchased their favourite treat, rootbeer milk, we went to the Bluebird Candy Company where I used to work and had a mini tour of the back and then brought some treats to Nita up on campus, and of course we went to the Cache Valley Fun Center! Logan is a great town.

I always refer to Logan as 'this town', ever since last year while at the Village Inn, I told the Armstrongs that I thought the pies looked disgusting. (Come on, Nita and I used to work at Savary Island Pie Company for crying out loud!) James was not happy with my pronouncement. He very solemnly corrected me in his 4 year old voice saying: "We don't say that in THIS town."

As part of the Logan tour I also had to take Lorie to one of our beauty schools where we got a deep condition and scalp massage for THREE DOLLARS!!
It was well worth the price even though Lorie's girl talked non-stop and seemed to think that living in Logan was her once in a lifetime, big city experience.

We had a fantastic visit and then I drove Lor back to SLC to meet up with her sister. I took the opportunity to go visit my old stomping grounds, Temple Square. It was a beautiful day and I felt very nostalgic and peaceful walking around the grounds and visiting the temple. Here are a couple of photos from my day.
