Fourth of July! This picture does not have a whole lot to do with Independence Day other than it was taken on it. On the Fourth of July, I went to a parade and fireworks with some friends. This is a picture of my friend Emily's little boy, Bronson. He is a cute little stinker. Before the parade they had a life flight helicopter on the ground for the kids to see. He is waiving good-bye to the helicopter in this picture.
There is a summer concert series in Salt Lake City every Thursday night. I don't know very many of the bands but this is a picture of me and my friends, Londyn and Abby, from one of the concerts.
I got to hike up to the Timpanogas Caves for the first time. Sadly, I did not get to go inside the actual cave though. You actually have to purchase a ticket to be able to go inside the cave. The park ranger said that the tickets sell out super fast in the summer. She was also telling the reasons why they sell tickets and only allow a certain amount of people in the cave. The more people they allow in the, the higher the temperature rises. There are certain species of plants and animals that only live in those caves, in that climate, and that temperature that would be killed if the temperature were to rise significantly. She also said that the study of caves is fairly new to scientists so that right now the best possible solution they have to keep the temperature constant is to control the amount of people going into the cave. So interesting!
As of recently, I have just been working and just finished my summer class. My brothers have moved out to Utah which I am very excited about! Also, my mom will be coming to visit Utah this week and my friend Amie and her kids are as well!
