Clear Creek Canyon - (Mike)

Jason Rudd stopped by with his family  and I was able to take them on a tour of the fort. He was one of my priests when I was Bishop in Shelley Fourth Ward. I also sent him on his mission. He is now a seminary teacher. I haven’t seen him for several a years.


The Zurker family from our ward in Ammon came through, and it was great to see them again. After they left, we took a couple from Florida on a tour. They were recently married; he was eighty and she in her seventies. She was form Delta, Utah. She was a member and he was Catholic. We took them on a tour and got a white card for the missionaries to bring to them a video. Afterward we had a prairie diamond ceremony for them since they had been married for less than a year.

Following our tours, we met up with some other missionaries including Elder and Sis. Baldwin, and took a bike ride down clear creek canyon. It was mostly downhill for about ten miles. We were flying down the canyon at about forty mph. It was easy riding and a lot of fun. We then went to dinner at Marriesville, near the Big Rock Candy Mountain, to a restaurant called Hoovers. The food was great.
