Camping at Rockport

We enjoyed another camping trip on Friday at Rockport State Park. It's about an hour or so through the Provo Canyon and just off of I-80. We had a pretty nice view of the reservoir.


The electricity at the campground had gone out temporarily so we "roughed" it for about an hour. Fortunately the stove works on propane so we survived the hardship by having breakfast potatoes (with the first of our homegrown batch of spuds) and hot chocolate. Camping doesn't get any better than that!


Lexie came with and enjoyed her time exploring in the tall weeds. She's a great little camper.





On the way up and back we were treated to the Fall scenery. The leaves are starting to turn in the canyon and now the hillsides are dotted in reds, golds, oranges, and greens. Very pretty!

Review - Fall of Giants

Fall of Giants by Ken Follett

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


I don't normally read series until the series is complete or near complete. I dislike having to go back and figure out who the characters are and what makes them so likable or not. Follett uses so many characters in this book he provides a 6 page listing of them! I liked the book but wished I had waited until the series was further along. Oh well, I guess I'll be skipping the new Jeffrey Archer novel for that very reason.

Now I am on to read The Jungle by Clive Cussler.
