Before we headed home last Friday we made one more stop off at Gus and Glenna's house. Carl's sister, Aunt Becky, was in town so we stopped to say goodbye. I snapped a few pictures of these two siblings and their childhood home, along with some of Glenna's beautiful roses. Aunt Becky gave Cali a few little treasures from the house, including a treasure box. Cali was beyond thrilled, but not thrilled to be leaving...At which time much crying and whining and bawling ensued.
I can't really blame her we had a great time and , I cried every time I left by grandma's house. When I was a kid I cried all the way from Fountain Green to
Fairview, and as an adult I tried to get my crying under control by the time I reached
Payson. Cali managed to compose herself at the gas station before we headed up the canyon.

After about 2.5 hours of driving, and a stop at
Winco in
Orem, we ate lunch in
Heber City. There is the cutest little
restaurant called the Dairy Keen. The food is greasy and great, and the kids got to stretch their legs on the train out front. We ended up stopping again in
Evanston before we actually made it home. We left Helper that morning at 10am and we arrived in Rock Springs at 5pm.

Oh the memories of 7 E Street in Helper! I am sad the house is being sold, but it is better to have someone enjoy it.
