Sound of Music

by

In 2003, Alpine started a community theater program and did "The Sound of Music", which had been done by the community 20 years earlier.  Mark played cello in the "pit".  The performances were done in an outdoor amphitheater — that's why it looks like Mark is sitting on stone seats.  They kept having problems with it raining, forcing one performance to get cancelled, and another delayed.  All the musicians had to keep scrambling for cover to protect their instruments.  Mark loved playing in the pit and has played in a number since then.

Horsetail Falls

In a canyon just outside of Alpine, there are some falls called Horsetail Falls.  During spring break this year, Scott and the boys hiked to the falls (its about 2 miles up a fairly steep trail).  There was quite a bit of water flowing over them. 

Along the way is a very large boulder that the Brian and Mark climbed up to get a picture taken.

Summer Vacation

by Leave a Comment

We went down to Las Vegas to see Star Trek: the Experience and did some other fun stuff while we were there like, M&M’s World, the Secret Garden at the Mirage Hotel, and Brian braved the roller coaster at New York, New York.  We also had dinner one night at the Rainforest Cafe at the MGM Grand and saw the lions there.  Scott had to spend some of the time at the hotel working, so me and the boys wandered on our own some of the time.  (click on a photo to see them all larger)

On the way home from Vegas, we stopped off in St. George to see “The King and I” at Tuacahn and had a great time.  I love that venue!  While we were in Southern Utah we visited the Brigham Young  winter home, did some swimming at the hotel, went to Zion National Park, and visited the ghost town of Grafton where Scott’s ancestors settled.
