Weekend at Bear Lake

JB invited Mom and the Centerville Plowmans (and also me! yay!) to spend the weekend up at her family's cabin in Laketown, on the shores of beautiful Bear Lake in northern Utah. And so, away we went for a few enjoyable days, also passing through a few booming metropolises (metropoli?) in Idaho and Wyoming in our travels.

The weather up there was several degrees cooler than it is currently in Davis County. In other words, it was quite nice.

Of course, you can't go up to Bear Lake without stopping by LaBeau's for raspberry shakes. And who are we to buck the consensus on such an important issue?

They were delicious. Also, it's my understanding that there was some sort of college football game played Saturday that involved two of our local teams. The colors of both teams were well represented among our motley crew. I guess there was a winner and a loser, but we couldn't tell because we had no access to the game on TV or on the radio.

Oh well. There will be other games with other teams in the future. All told, we had a very nice weekend and then lived to tell the tale. And, fortunately, a large dragon did not emerge from the mountains and come down to Laketown to lay waste to the place. It appears movies and TV have lied to me yet again.

Improvables: Layton High School Drama

Earlier tonight, Jamie, Lorin, Richard, and I had the great opportunity to take the stage with 10 talented students from Layton High School's Drama Dept. for our Saturday night show at the Clearfield Community Arts Center. It was a fun evening filled with . . . well, unexpected, spontaneous theater, which is what makes improv such a phenomenal thing to take part in.

There was also some college football game being played at the same time at Rice-Eccles Stadium in Salt Lake. But I didn't miss much . . . did I?
