A New Tradition


The 4th of July is my all time favorite holiday. I love the warm weather, barbeque's, and city streets lined with the American Flag. What a great time of year to celebrate our independence and as an added bonus we get to watch FIREWORKS, which I love! This year Joe and I decided to mark this wonderful day with an unforgettable tradition that we will look forward too every year. We have booked a room at the Stein Ericksen Lodge in Park City. We will spend the day walking(Joe)/shopping(Les and Stella) at the outlets and and enjoying the art in the galleries on Main Street. In the evening we are going to go to the Deer Valley Music Festival to listen to the Utah Symphony's Patriotic Celebration Concert on the grass with a picnic dinner and of course fireworks!!

Les, can I say how happy I am that you have been updating your blog so much lately! Now I'M starting to get intimidated! :)

Have you stayed at SE before? You will LOVE it. I don't know if you read my anniversary post about it in April, but it's my all time favorite hotel. That sounds like a great tradition!

Thats so fun Les-- That is what my family does when they are in Utah for this blessed Holiday! I love going up to Park City for the 4th! I wish we were going this year but my brothers have to Start College in August so my parents will be in Oregon and Utah in August so no Park City for me this year!

We stayed at SE one year and I took pictures of every room because I didn't think anyone would believe me when I told them how nice it was.
