I will be there attending a few classes and getting my learning on, say hi if you see us!
Monday was SO beautiful and this weather is just beyond exciting to me, but I am a bit sad to say goodbye to the farmers market, freckled shoulders, and trips to dip our toes in the river. Then again, have you SEEN those hills Ogden? I promise you will not be disappointed if you take a hike up there (soon, its turning!) to see the fall leaves and the amazing view of Ogden from above.
Another special event I would like to mention is being put on by “Wrap to take a stand”, local business Kellys skinny wraps are putting on wrap specials and donating some of the profits to Domestic violence awareness. http://www.facebook.com/events/455211901196123/ - Domestic Violence Awareness Bogeys - Tuesday at 6:00pm until Tuesday at 11:45pm
