Antelope Island

It never ceases to amaze me all of the beautiful things that are right in my own backyard!!! Yesterday was in the upper 60s low 70s and we KNEW we had to take advantage of the weather. So into the truck we went and away we drove...a whole 5 miles to Antelope Island. There were not a ton of animals out (it is winter after all) but there were a TON of buffalo roaming around...crossing the roads...and sprinting RIGHT TOWARDS MY DOOR!!! The way the snow covered mountain tops reflected in the beautiful Salt Lake was breathtaking. I can only imagine how gorgeous it looks in the Fall when all the vibrant colors are about. On the way out, we even got to catch the sunset...aww PERFECTION!!! We loved it, Lincoln LOVED it and we can cross a Utah State Park off the list of places to see and things to do! :) Seriously, if you have a free weekend, load up the car, pay $10 and go see the beauty that is in your own neighborhood!

this picture was taken by Lincoln as we were driving back towards the exit...not to shabby for a 3 year old!!!
