This story begins with Wayne and Daniel needing new shoes. We are huge fans of Nike shoes. Of course, if you want extra cool Nikes at a discount, the best place to buy them is the Nike Outlet in Park City. And if you are going all the way to Park City, you might as well make it into an event.
We started by eating at the "Classic Pizza Hut" in Heber City. Daniel has a particular preference for Pizza Huts in the hut-style buildings. He ate at one in Idaho during our trip to see my grandparents back in June, and he always talks about it. This is Daniel at his second favorite Pizza Hut:
You really can't go to Park City and not do something recreational. We decided to take the boys down the Alpine Slide. We try to go to the Alpine Slide once per year, and something always goes awry. Like kids getting carsick going up the canyon or huge thunderstorms spontaneously erupting. Benjamin had been to the Alpine Slide a few times, but he had never actually gone down the slide before. We made it this time!
Afterward, Wayne and Daniel got their Nikes, and not to be left out, I got some, too. Benjamin didn't want any because he "only likes shoes that light up and have straps (velcro)." We also went to the OshKosh store. It's a great place to get clothes for boys. They are cute and wear well.
One of the best parts about going this weekend was the beautiful fall scenery up the canyon. This is Deer Creek Reservoir:
And another shot going up the canyon:
We were glad to enjoy this last bit of "summer," especially because the weather is supposed to change soon.
I love park city! Last time we went down the slides, Scott flipped and gave himself some great road rash. Big, clumsy boy!
