Camping ... Finally!!!

We were finally able to take out the Flying Dutchmen this past weekend, we have been too busy and the weather has been too stormy before now.  It still rained on us a little, but we survived and the tent trailer survived the winter with only a few minor repairs.  We went to Wasatch Mountain State Park, just a few miles from the town of Midway.
We had fun hanging out at our campground.
We took a self-guided tour around the Huber Home in Midway.
We hiked to see an overlook of Heber Valley, the girls actually made it most of the way.  Thanks goodness for cloud cover!
It sure warmed up in the afternoon and since we had a water spout in our campground, the girls decided to make the most of it ... several times.  The cold water was very refreshing!
We decided to take advantage of having the town so close and chose to eat at Cafe Galleria one night.  They specialize in wood-fired pizza, it was pretty tasty. 
We were so close to Guardsman Pass so we drove from Midway to Park City one morning via the pass.  It was very pretty!  We saw a few snowmobiles that looked as though they had been ditched in the winter, they were in the strangest places and positions.

We completed our trip with a visit down memory lane for myself by eating at Dairy Keen in Heber.  Growing up I would stop here with my friend and her family on the way to her cabin several weekends every summer.  The food tastes the same and the train is the same, the restaurant has expanded a bit.   We loved our camping trip and will definitely camp here again in the future.
