Claire loves to sing and dance, and Kaleb will make a great director some day!!

Changed by Jesus

Today Brice continued his series on those who have met and been changed by Jesus. He talked about how the 12 were called and forever changed, and he showed a clip of one of our members talking about how her encounter with the gospel totally changed the direction of her life many years ago. Here's how the service looked.

Park City #5

Friday was another busy day. Late morning through early afternoon was park time. Here are a few pics.

The sky was simply beautiful most of the week. Virginia and Kaleb had fun finding animals and other shapes in the clouds. What do you see here?

After a hike back to the car, we visited Olympic Park for the second time this week. We forgot our camera the first time. This ski jump area is home for a couple of super zip lines in the summer. On Tuesday Kaleb and I rode the Ultra (as opposed to the longer Extreme) zip line. The Ultra was high enough, long enough and fast enough for me!!

The freestyle ski jumpers practice during the summer by using this pool at the bottom of these runs. Really fun to watch, and we stayed and watched them practice for quite a while.

I'll close with this shot of a couple of people on the Extreme zip line.

Park City #4

We ran across this library that used to be a hospital (Kaleb took this shot). The grounds were well cultivated with a great variety of beautiful flowers... and don't ask me their names. I'm florally challenged.

Kaleb leaning on the flag pole to give some perspective as to how big these blooms are.

Kaleb's favorite.

Never seen a bloom quite like the one below.

Notice the fuzzy green caterpillar enjoying the blossom.

A full bouquet!!

Park City #3

Even though the climate here is pretty dry, there must have been pretty good spring rains, and there are also those afternoon mountain thunderstorms to help things stay green. In our walks with the kids we ran across some interesting wild flowers.

And, we caught this wonderful winged creature just soaking up the sun in the cool breeze.

Park City #2

Well, the internet traffic is light enough for a better connection right now, so time to post a few pics. It's now Wednesday afternoon, and these pics were at a park we hiked to with the kids on Monday. They pretty much speak for themselves. :)

Park City #1

Well, our flight to Salt Lake went smoothly. We rented our tiny car and arrived at the Prospector Square Lodge and Conference Center some time around mid-night. We got settled in, slept so-so, and had a wonderful day today with Kaleb and Claire while Jen attended the math conference. It's huge! Mathematicians everywhere!!

Our wireless connection isn't too stable, so I'll try to post pics later.
