Family Visits to Our Logan Home, Part 1

The end of September and beginning of October brought visits from parents.  Susan’s were the first to arrive, driving all the way across the country to bring us winter clothes and other miscellaneous boxes we couldn’t fit in the Hyundai.  We hosted her parents for a Tuesday through Sunday visit, so had a good amount of time to let them see how we are living out in the Cache Valley.  Some of the activities we undertook included visiting the food hotspots of Aggy’s Ice Cream (Jeff’s first Aggy’s taste also), Gossner’s Dairy outlet store, the Pepperidge Farm outlet store, the Bluebird Café, and (our favorite) La Nonne. 

We also checked out the Richmond hardware store, the Gardener’s Market, and took them to trivia.  On Sunday before we parted ways, we made a trip down to Park City for their Sunday market and to visit the Olympic Training Center.  Being warm weather, the training center was much more active than the last time we stopped by (in January) with athletes training on aerials into the swimming pool, ropes courses being used by visitors, tours ongoing, and the ski lift operating.  Susan and I took advantage of the opportunity to ride the alpine slide back down the mountain.  Once we left the training center, Susan’s parents started the long trek East and we returned to Logan with a good visit completed.
