Mark and I continued our quest to see new Utah counties by visiting Wasatch County. We went to Midway and Heber. It was a lot colder there than in Salt Lake and we drove past a small ice castle at the Homestead that was pretty. The Midway ice castle display wasn’t open when we were there. The Heber Railroad is closed most of January so we added that to our list of things we want to do another day.
Mark liked the Jordanelle Reservoir in its frozen beauty. We visited the Homestead Caldera and would have gone swimming except I can’t find my suit. So we just touched the warm water and said we will come back another day.
Richard finished his scuba training at the caldera just a few months ago and can’t wait to go back. In contrast, I can’t swim but have made a resolution to change that this year. Lucky me, life vests are required in the caldera.
Wasatch County is a beautiful place. Mark liked the old fashioned houses and all of the animal statuary in yards. I liked the tiny houses, too, and the ice skating rink in Midway called to me. How I love to skate.
Going on journeys to new places is one of my favorite things to do in “home” school.
