Happy October! We hope you are enjoying this beautiful time of year! Some people dream of paradise on a quiet tropical beach, listening to the surf with a drink in hand. Not this girl! Give me mountains, especially drenched in autumn color, bursting with new spring leaves, or covered in snow. We are spending October in one of our favorite places–Big Cottonwood Canyon just east of the Salt Lake Valley. We are loving the gorgeous golden aspen with the deep pine greens. Hiking is great and so is the smell of fresh forest! Nathan’s sister, Liz, and her husband, Christian, joined us one morning for a lovely hike through the woods. We got to experience a powerful thunderstorm and then a full day of snowfall. Our condo for the month is just right for us and we love having access to a pool, hot tubs, sauna, and workout facilities. We especially like that we can pop back to the valley to do some shopping or see family and friends. So far, so good!
Not Warm. Loving It Anyway.

Goodbye to Warmth
We've had a great, if quiet, week here in Florida. We've managed to book some fun future travel plans, talk to the kids and grandkids and other family, and enjoy this corner of the world. This slice of Florida has been great this month. We've really enjoyed being able...
Just Chillin’
We're still here in Florida, working on projects and getting in our daily walks and recommended daily doses of sunsets and healthy food. We don't do much that's exciting from day to day. Nathan reads, studies languages, and practices the piano. I've made some crafts,...
