I'm a day late posting! Bea flew in today for a week long visit - yea!! We met up with Kathy and took a hike to stretch legs out at Round Mountain in Park City. A good warm up for hiking in the Wasatch because it's not straight up and straight down! :-) Afterward, in Bea's honor, a great dinner of brats (because she loves brats!) and salad and then, to kick off the spring/summer season - our first Saturday trip to the Dairy Queen for ice cream. Yep, that's the way to begin a great spring - best friends, brats on the grill and DQ!

Dont'cha love this second picture - hiking on snow in shorts!! Utah is awesome that way. Kathy just got back from St. George area where it was 80, back to 70 here with cyclists and runners all over the place, and yet there's tons of snow and great skiing still up in the mountains!
