Fun Days in New Harmony

The past few days have been filled with me working, while Tara and the kids go and play. Until yesterday that is. We took advantage of my day off to spend time having fun in Southern Utah. We rode ATV's all morning, as Kennedy and Alex both decided that they love the open air. Maybe they'll want to join a biker gang or something, who knows? The helmet was a little big for Alex, but I'm sure he'll want to grow into it.

The afternoon was spent on a long drive through the country. We wanted to go in search of some geocaches into Kolob Canyon and ended up driving all the way to Kolob Reservoir. What a great spot. The temperature dropped down into the 60's and the kids had a great time playing in the water. We even took a trip out to Paradise Island. Okay, because the water was so low we actually walked out to the island. On the ride home we went through Kanarraville Canyon, where you would have thought we were in the Uintahs - not Red Rock country. Everything was green, with Aspens and Pines being the main trees we encountered. There was hardly a sagebrush to be found!

It was a great day and we've really had fun during our trip down to Nana and Papa's. There's so much to do down here and the kids absolutely love the country lifestyle.

You have definitely convinced me to look up Kanarraville Canyon next time we are south for a trip. Loved the falls pics too. :)
