Bike Ride
While up north we wanted to hit some biking trails up north. Unfortunately, the morning that we planned to ride it started to rain. To kill time we went out to breakfast at Mimi's, and browsed through the selection of hats at Burlington coat factory. The rain finally cleared and we decided to try the paths just above Cally and Josh's house. We started out pretty well flying down a slightly muddy hill. It looked like the trail was going to be a good one. But we soon found out that the rest of the trail was straight up hill on slippery muddy slope.
It was a long battle to get up the hill but we finally made it. Our tires were caked with mud to the point that we would lose traction up the hill. Once to the top the trail crossed a paved road and then continued off down another large hill. We chose not to go down another muddy hill to just go up another one. We decided to take the paved road back to the car. On the way back to the car mud was flying off our tires that we were covered in mud from head to toes. Lesson learned don't go on a mountain bike ride after it has rained.

Blog world
So we finally decided that it was time to start a blog spot. Just to keep everyone updated. There won't be much to update on but oh well, we are students and don't have lives. However, we had multiple adventures before we moved to TN and afterwards. Little by little we will hopefully get them posted. We wanted to go to seven peaks before we left. We went once and got rained out before we even got there. So this was the second try. Thanks to Cally and Josh for putting up with us twice. Kelsey had a lot of fun while Luke was leery of the large, rude crowds. Luke screamed like a girl going off of the boomerang backwards. Needless to stay we didn't stay long. We hit most of the rides and then left. We then decided to eat our lunch at a park in the middle of town. Afterwards, wondering what we were going to do with ourselves the rest of the day, we drove around for a few hours trying to find an ice skating rink. Come to find out they had one at seven peaks but we ended up driving to west valley. We had the ice completely to ourselves..
