Utah Lake State Park

Well, we have finally made it to Utah! we are staying at the Utah Lake State Park and there are very few camp sites taken. I haven't seen any other children here and the playground is really pitiful.

 It got really windy while we were setting up the tent and I thought that the storm might ruin our tent. It is not staked down very well because it is set up on a concrete pad and there is nothing to stake it directly to. thankfully the wind stopped and now we can cook supper in peace.

While Loretta was cooking supper, Rebecca and I went around the camping loop several times so that she could "burn off some energy". Rebecca is really acting hyper today. The very last time we went around the loop, she was almost attacked by a dog that was chained to a fence post and we did not see until it was too late. Luckily Rebecca veered away just in the nick of time and the chain was too short to reach the other side of the road. I had a talk with the dog owner later about controlling his animal and he took it rather well. I am thankful that Rebecca did not overreact to the near miss.

There is a very nice jogging trail just on the other side of the campground. It is paved and very scenic. I hope to take Rebecca on a bike ride there in the morning to burn off a little more energy.
