Stout Canyon

I LOVE summers! We just spent a great weekend up at a friend's cabin. We went up with Brett & Kate and his brother's family. The owner of the cabin fit the perfect rancher grandpa profile. He was SO kind and very welcoming. It's seriously a patch of paradise with a spring and pond, view of red rock spires, horses, and fresh mountain air! I thought it was neat the the cabin was completely off the grid. There is a paddle wheel that kept batteries charged for electricity and all the water comes from the spring. The weekend was full of good company, perfect weather, walks, swimming, zip-lining, 4-wheeling, dutch oven, fly fishing, and games. I love this time of year, especially in southern Utah!

haha! You and George are so cute. I love your beach cruiser and totally think you should name her the black widow. I'm sooo jealous! I've wanted one for a while too. That lake the zip line is over looks amazing! I can't believe it's already been a year too. Crazy! That cabin sounds amazing too, by the way. Love it!
