Can you read?


So here are some people that obviously could not read. There was a sign at this secluded lake that said no wading. which means keep your dirty feet out of the water. So next time you are up in the pristine mountains pay attention and take your dictionary if necessary.

Hiking in the hills of Alta


So today my mother and i decided to take a little stroll up the mountainside in Alta, UT. we took the Cecret Lake trail head, a short 1.0 mile walk up 208 feet of rock and dirt.






Today i felt like i was in the Swiss Alps the only thing i forgot were my Lederhosen and a bugle. But oh the beauty of Utah, more people in this grand state need to enjoy their own backyard. C'mon people stop wasting money on overpriced unappreciated glory vacations!

LOOK! And i looked and oh my land. JULY 25TH and there's still piles and piles of snow in our lovely deseret.


My advice to all ya'll is to go out and enjoy the land we live in. Who needs to go to Oregon, Nevada, Colorado? STAY HOME!!

returning of the great Cowleys

so today was the homecoming of the Cowleys. my wonderful mission mom and dad who took care of me and my brother for 3 years while we labored in the West Virginia Charleston Mission (WVCM).


This here is President Joe Cowley and Peter (left) and Alex (right). He had to deal with us Stokers for the entire 3 years he served. But boy are we glad. "Sure love ya'
President."
This is sister Cowley and the family. She was our mission "Mom" fdor 3 years and luckily we didn't have to call her for medical help too much, but she was a hilarious person. I guess she still is cause she's "not quite dead yet."
