Sweet Sanpete

This weekend I took a little trip with my family to good ole Mount Pleasant. We have a cabin that we try to visit once or twice a month to take a break from our crazy lives and relax. If there are two things you should know about me it's that 1) I love my family more than anything, and 2) Mt. Pleasant is beautiful and my favorite place in all of Utah. That means this was a superb weekend because I was surrounded by two of the things dearest to me.

On Saturday we rode our 4-wheelers all around Spring City (a little town between Mt. Pleasant and Manti). If you are ever in the area and need a cozy spot to have a picnic this is the place. Main street has lots of cute art galleries and historic sites. Most of the buildings are old and the people are kind. If you see a sign for "Gormet Cream Snow" follow the arrows because it will take you to an adorable cottage that serves THE BEST Shaved Ice I have ever had. And that is saying something because I've lived in Hawaii where "Shave Ice" is a perfected art.

Being in Sanpete County is one of the best things a person can do for their body and soul. The air is pure, the stars are bright, and the scenery is breath taking (especially at this time of year). Sometimes we can get caught up in the stress and drama of our lives and forget to be thankful for this beautiful earth. It's hard to forget the magnificence when you see trees bursting with leaves so red you might think they were flowers. So if you're in need of a break and can spare an hour or two for the drive, head up to Sanpete County. It is an often overlooked treasure of Utah.
