Fall is Here!

Well it would appear like Fall is finally here in middle Utah. We are enjoying the cool nights and especially the colors in the mountains. With such a wet spring and pretty decent summer the leaves are beautiful. Last Friday, the 26th of September, Pam and I drove through Fairview Canyon from Huntington to Fairview and it was pretty spectacular. Andrew you would remember this canyon as the place Ralph Goddard and I took you Priests skiing one winter. The following are some of the pictures that I took. The most difficult challenge was picking which pictures to put on the blog!

Yesterday, the 30th of September Ann and Sherwood invited us to drive with them up Monroe Mountain. What was a beautiful day was only only dampened by the terrible condition of the mountain road. Probably the worst condition we have ever seen. But the trees were gorgeous and we even had some redness in the quaken aspen, which we have not seen before. We drove down the Koosharem side of the mountain and then up to Fishlake and the mountains were alive with color. From there we drove down the Fremont River canyon and over to I-70 and back home via Salina.

Pam was released from her stake calling last Sunday after a wonderful 3 1/2 years as Stake Relief Society President. She and her counselors did a wonderful job and will be sorely missed. Of course they aren't going anywhere, but you know what I mean. Now I can have her counsel full time and I will be needing it. We are looking forward to General Conference next week and hope everyone gets an opportunity to watch or listen to the various sessions.
