Park City

Thursday May 21, 2009
I planned on going to Tennilles appartment to help her clean and just to hang out when a lady in Tennilles staff, Linda, asked if Tennille wanted to go to Park City just to get out of the house. So Tennille invited me and I came along. It was way fun and I'm glad I got to meet Linda, she's an amazing lady.
We went through some art exhibits and this was one of them. They had a lot of Native American art, which one of my favorite types of art. This guy was carved out of soft clay which I thought was amazing so I had to get a picture
Look at this bear! He's just so cute =)
And here I am next to him... what a hunk ;-)

In one of the little exhibits the lady had a dog and Tennille loooved him so I had to get a picture of the two together lol
I think Park City is the cutest town. It's so pretty and I loove the old buildings and shops
This iron statue is a called something like, the hunter being hunted. The Indian hunted a deer which you see at his feet and then there's a mountain lion or something attacking him from on top. I thought it was pretty cool. The art is very intricate and interesting to me and it tells a story

This is the cute little pizza place we ate at. A young couple own's it and they were sooo sweet and the husband was funny. It was nice eating there. Linda treated us there which I thought was very sweet. She told me it was her missionary present to me, very sweet of her. So it ended up being not only fun but a totally free trip =)

In this souvenir shop they had wooden frog drums that were similar to what former Indian tribes used to make music. The frogs had a spine on the back where you were supposed to rub the wooden drum along it. Each one made it's unique sound. I thought they were pretty cool
This is a replica of a contraption that was used while mining in the late 1800s/mid 1900s. It was pretty interesting lookingI really had to stretch my legs to get in there ha. And it was kind of hard to climb in there with heels but I was not about to take off my shoes because it was dirty. Anything for a picture right? ;-)
I'm a dork, I know haha
That was actually really uncomfortable though. I was sitting on a whole bunch of broken cement and was straining to keep myself up straight. If you could see my face close up you'd be able to tell lol

I think the guy is looking at gold or something... can't remember but I love Tennille in this picture =)Tennille and I went inside of the Church History place that they had down the boulevard. It was pretty cool and this tree had faces in it. You can see one of them. I thought it was cool and they said that's a replica of a real tree. I forgot where he said it was but I'd like to go see it sometime
Moose!


This is one place where the winter olympics in '02 were held. I love snowboarding/snowboarders =) (I love a lot of things as you can tell haha)
On our way home we got a few snap shots of the pretty views. I really love it in Park City, it's so pretty and cute. We had a lot of fun!





After we got back home from Park City Tennille and I got a free body message at some school. Her mom works there so we got it for free which was way cool. That was my first time getting a full body message anywhere so that was way cool and very relaxing. I'm definitely going to have to get another one sometime

Fun, fun, and more fun, sounds like you had a great time. I enjoyed the pictures, I like the ones in the old mine car or whatever.
