Today was Stake Conference and we played hookie from church. We went to hike Sand Canyon, which is part of Canyon of the Ancients. We had a lot of fun even though we were only able to hike about a mile in. Saree probably rode about 1/2 of the time and Jaycie, with all her boundless energy, probably did 2 1/2 miles to our 2. She would run ahead of us and we'd call her back so she'd run to us to run ahead again. If only there were a way to harness that energy.
There were a few ruins there but the major ruins were 6 miles in and the last mile is pretty steep. We're not up for that right now. I would like to ride horses in sometime though, they do allow it there and it would be fun. There were several people there on bikes - nuts. There were also alot of people there with their dogs, which Jaycie loved and Saree did too as long as they didn't get too close. There were a couple of times when Saree didn't get her way that she just flopped onto the trail on her stomach and pouted. I told her that she better get up and moving because there were dogs around that might like to lick on her. That got immediate results. I'm mean, so what.
Saree in full pout.
Some of the rock formations there.

The Sleeping Ute Moutain Range (part of it anyway).
