For spring break we combined Rick's continuing education with a vacation. He took a course in Las Vegas on Saturday and Sunday. While he was in class, Sue and Jarrod enjoyed the city. They took a tour of the Hoover Dam. Jarrod enjoyed going deep inside to see the turbines. It is enormous! They returned to Vegas and saw a display called "The Body". It is a display of dissected bodies. It sounds gross but was very educational. The human body is an amazing structure!!
Saturday was a beautiful day to see the dam. We left Vegas at noon for Utah. We had just passed Beaver when it began to snow. Fortunately, it wasn't cold enough to stick on the pavement (except a little on the peak near Holden). But this is the FIRST OF APRIL!!
But Monday was gorgeous! It was nice for snowball fights and making a snowman.
But what was really beautiful was Katelynn. She found a hat and jewelry.
On Tuesday, we went to the zoo in Salt Lake City. Katelynn really likes elephants. Tuesday evening, we went with the entire family to P.F. Chang's for dinner. Sorry, no good photos.
On Wednesday, Rick and Jarrod went to Sundance for a day of skiing. It was surprising good for this late in the season. It was sunny in the AM for overcast with some light snow the rest of the day so not too slushy until late in the afternoon. We also went with Rick, Adam, and Kyle Christensen from Orange (and Logan, Caroline Christensen's husband). We have photos of them skiing you can request.
This was only Jarrod's third time on skis. He did extremely well. The photo below on the Top Gun slope - a black diamond level run. He was able to do it several times quite well.
You can see, he's doing good. The guy cutting between us is Logan.
