Big Squash

We grew this banana squash in our garden this year. The squash weighs about 30 pounds. Baked banana squash with brown sugar and a dab of butter is mighty tasty!

My Favorite Place

Over Labor day, I took the kids to the Uinta mountains. We hiked up the Leidy Peak trail about 3 miles. I'm planning next year to hike to the top of Leidy Peak, which is about 13,000 feet above sea level. It's not the highest point in Utah, which is King's Peak at 13560 feet, but the Leidy Peak trail has much less foot traffic and is every bit just as beautiful.

It's fairly rugged hiking through the downed timber until you get to "the meadow" near our usual camp site.
