An alternative to mud...

A few weekends ago we were itching to go hiking 
but all the trails were muddy.  
The twigs came up with an alternative.

There was a pretty little stream and green trees 
so with some imagination it worked.   

The City Creek Centre has an simulated creek running through the shopping centre.  At first I was told this was actual water from the creek that runs through this area, but someone else said that this water is treated.  However, there is a creek along the sidewalk next to the LDS Conference Centre that I am told is water from the actual creek that used to run from the canyon in the mountains to a river on the edge of downtown.

The twigs headed to one end of City Creek Center, 
took this pic, 


and texted it to the Mr. and me. 

We headed to the other end of City Creek Center,
took this pic, 
and texted it to the twigs.


Then the race was on to find 
where the other two had taken their picture, 
and text back a pic of us in the same spot, 
before they could do the same.


We did it over and over again till we finally stumped the twigs
with West Elm. 

That place is totally tucked way back in there!    ;)


Fun times!   :)


Thanks, twigs, for the great idea.  <3
