Constant Weather is Overrated Anyway, Utah

Cloudy with large thunderstorms and heat waves in between.

Yes, Utah, what is going on with you? So hot one day, and then the next, thunderstorms and hard rain?

It’s like Seattle weather on illegal drugs.

Anyway, it’s actually pretty interesting! It was thundering a lot last week, and there was one huge lightening storm up north one night. TWICE I went bike riding when it was perfectly good weather and then it poured on me.
We were all nervous because Geoff’s marathon was on Saturday, and the forecast showed that it was going to rain. We really hoped the weather was going to be good for his marathon, since he really wanted to qualify for Boston, but rain it did!

This is us helping him. Jeff wanted to run with the chocolate milk.

Geoff and Dan after he qualified.

After we went to the Pizza Pie Cafe and then Jeff and I decided to go biking in the pouring rain. Jeff didn’t want to get wet (he’s from California folks) so he created a dress out of trash bags.

Then we went swimming. It was suprisingly warm water! I guess it’s the contrast principle at work.  :)

The next Friday Jeff came up with us to Aunt Marcia’s before we left the next morning. Jeff got along great with Einstein.

We played hide and seek. Jeff fell out of the tree and scraped up his arms pretty bad. He probably fell from about 10-15 feet up. It was pretty scary, and funny.

We left the next day. I like the drive back to Washington because it’s so pretty in Oregon and Washington. It was long, but nice to cut off those two hours by going up to Marcia’s the night before.

See if you can find the moose in the last picture.  :)

Jonathan was so excited to see us, it was nice.  :)
