Last Day in Utah

Howdy guys and gals!

'sup? Sorry I never posted about my last day in Utah. IDK why I didn't. So I'll do it now:



Dear Journal, 2-28-08



We're in a teeny plane right now about to take off. Well, there was 15 planes, but 6 have already taken off. *sigh*.

Yesterday, we went Horse back riding sort of in the mountains! It was an hour ride. Original price was $55 PER person! So we weren't going to do it, but the lady called back and said they'd do it for 45 bucks per person. So we did it!

I rode a really pretty palomino/white paint LOOKING Quarter Horse, named Willie, after Willie Nelson. Dad rode a black Quarter Horse (all the horses were Quarter Horse) named Grace. Adam rode a chestnut -- Graham. Luke - a red chestnut - Howard. And mom rode a brown and white paint looking Quarter Horse named Bandy. We had a pretty view riding up the mountain. The guide had the most beautiful Horse out of the horses we rode. He was a Grulla!! A rare color, that's really pretty.

After that, we went shopping in some stores in the town. Me and mom went into a pet store that sold only pet accessories/treats. When we first walked in, we saw a HUGE black dog sleeping on the floor. We thought he was a really big stuffed animal Dog, until we saw him blink. The owner of the dog and store said he was a New Foundland Dog. She said she had THREE Newfoundlands!! Two were there at the store, and one was on a walk. I LOVED those Dogs. I sat on the floor and snuggled one. It was the kind of Dog I've always really wanted. A HUGE friendly, and really FLUFFY Dog. They make a good pillow/stuffed animal!! I got for free dog treats at that store I'm gonna give to Amy and Ranger. :)

We went into another store, and me, Luke, and Adam bought mammaw and Poppa a wooden sign that said, 'We're not retired, we're tired.'

After we finished lookin' at the stores, we drove around and looked at the mountains. We even got to touch some 'slushy snow'! There was quite a bit of snow, but it wasn't cold outside.

TODAY:

We got up, got our stuff together, and listened to music before time to go. Then we drove to g-ma and g-pa's work. We said good-bye to g-ma, and g-pa took my family and I to the airport.

We got some food, and ate while waiting for our flight. The plane we got on was a new plane, and had almost half the plane empty!! Adam had 3 seats to himself. Then mom moved back to him, and I had 3 seats to myself, so I laid down, but I couldn't go to sleep.

In the air-port, I bought a doodle book thingy, a quiz book, and a mad lib book. I wanted a magazine all about the Jonas Brothers, but mom wouldn't let me buy it. :(

Then I called Zaina, and we talked until I got on the plane, and I had to turn off the phone.

It took forever to take off, cause there was like 15 planes ahead of us, then the plane coming in for a landing had some kind of an emergency, and a lot of fire trucks, police, and ambulances came, and that delayed us even more. So we took of almost the same time we were supposed to be in the airport in the city where I live!!

Well, I guess that's all of this trip, so TTYL!
