I took the day off today so that Lily and I could have a date together. Honestly, we don’t go out “just us” enough, and so it was such a treat to spend the day with Lily.
On the ride up I talked a lot about the lengthy Jordan Peterson lecture I had just listened to. Our first stop was a wonderful restaurant called Harvest, where Lily and I got brunch.
Weather was perfect, and afterwards, we walked around and ended up at the Park City museum. We learned all about the mining history of Park City, which was fascinating. We also had a discussion about the role we want religion to play in our family’s lives and that was productive.
Then we went swimming which was a highlight for me. Their rec center was $30 (or more) per person, and the person at the register said he just could bring himself to charge us that so we got in for $12 each. Thanks!
Lily and I got in a great swim workout outside. It was soooo nice to swim together and just enjoy the water, the weather and the company together. Lily and I are both trying to get more in shape and it was fun to pursue that goal together.
Then we had about 30 minutes before it was time to go. We then stopped into Meredith’s shop and talked to the shop keeper. I noticed a jean jacket Meredith wore on the show selling for over $1,900. Also, Lily almost bought a hat.
Then we stopped into an art gallery that had the most amazing photography either Lily or I have seen. It is a couple that works together and they use film cameras and don’t doctor their pictures. The color and detail is absolutely stunning. Here is their web page.
I wasn’t sure if it really was the best photography ever or if Lily and I were just caught up in the moment, so we stopped into another photography gallery. The photos were great, but not near on the same level as the McMillan gallery, so that solidified it. We LOVE McMillann photography.
Then we drove back while listening to Trevor Noah, picked the kids up from school, and talk to our dear friend Amy while the kids had tennis lessons and played together.
In the evening, we had a family movie night and watched Inside Out together which was so wonderful.
What a great day! I loved all my time with my sweetheart and kids! After all of my and Lily’s pushing on the house together (to get it clean and organized), it was so fun to all have a fun day together. I am totally in love and grateful for this beautiful wife, my kids, and this life.
