Thanksgiving Point

Jenny, Olivia, Brady and myself went to visit the Thanksgiving Point gardens August 19. First we joined Ashleigh for lunch at the deli. It was a hot day, and we only got around to seeing half of the gardens. We are going back next Tuesday to see the rest. Thanksgiving Point was offering a special admission price of $2.00 instead of the traditional price of $10.00 per person--WHICH IS TOO MUCH TO BEGIN WITH!!!!!!! We had a great time and the flowers were beautiful. .

Share the Bounty

There is a little "hut" on this road in Lindon, and I pass by it every day. People put their left over vegetables, and fruit that is in abundance. Anyone can take the "abundance", as it is left there for everyone and anyone. Isn't that a great and giving idea? This is what I picked up this week.
