Vernal

We are trying to go to every temple in Utah.  Over memorial day weekend we decided to go to the Vernal temple.  And the Dinosaur Park.                    We stopped at this "Pizzaria" on the way down.  When we walked in I wanted to turn right back around.  Several of the people there were missing several teeth.  I wasn't sure I trusted them to prepare my food.  I still don't.  But we stayed and there were no negative effects from the food. :)




Vernal temple, right next to a church building.  We ran into Shaun's dad's cousin at the front desk.  Pretty weird.  We run into people all the time who ask us if we're related to such-and-such Jolley, and we never know the person.  This time the guy just looked at Shaun and said, "You look like Brad's son."  Weird.

There were chipmunks, lizards and BUNNIES all over our camp.  So cute!  I never got a picture of a bunny, but the chipmunks were pretty brave.






Real fossil preserved as they found it in the rock!



Grilled cheese, which we could barely get to cook because the wind was blowing and cooling it off faster than it could cook!

Turtle rock

petroglyphs?  not sure what they're called, but they were cool
saw a coyote right along the side of the road!

Ground hog?

I have an obsession with bare trees

We took a little hike up to this amazing view.
