Bree: Our adjustment to being home has been anything but smooth and with every passing day we wonder how we fit in in our old lives, or whether we really do at all. While we debate what our next move should be, we’ve been seeking weekend adventures wherever we can find them, so when we […]
It is Labor Day once again – and for the second year in a row that means spending some time with Bree’s extended family at their cabin near Brian Head Ski Resort. We were so enamored with Kanarra Canyon last year that we decided to spend Saturday morning hiking up the beautiful slot. We were […]
By the time I’d been back to work for just two weeks, I was headed off to the company river rafting trip down Cataract Canyon. River rafting has been a company event every year for the past three years, but for a variety of reasons this was the first year I was able to attend. […]

Coincidentally, Spence invited us on a slot canyon hike down in Southern Utah during the week – along with his friend Jeanine […]
