Taking Andrea to College- Provo--then Rexburg, Idaho

After flying in to Salt Lake City, I spend time with my mom in St. George.  Then my mom and Craig drove up with me to Provo. Dave flew in from Maryland to meet me.  Andrea had flown to Seattle first to spend time with James and his family, and then spend a couple days with Julia and Matt, and saw Daniel and Meg. 

[ Julia is working at an Interior Design firm.  Matt, Daniel and Meg are students at BYU in Provo.]

    

                                               The girls had a 'tea party' in the park.

For Daniel's birthday we [Dave, me, Daniel, Meg, Julia, Matt, Andrea] went to a place in Provo where you have a solve a mystery together in an hour with the clues in a room.   

That day we also rented jet skiis at the lake up in Provo canyon.  Julia, Dad and Andrea went for awhile.  There were fires in the canyon a few miles away and we saw helicopters dipping large buckets in the lake to take to put out the fires,

Then Dave, Andrea and I took off for Rexburg.  We stopped in to see Temple Square in Salt Lake City,  Then we drove to Shelley, Idaho where we had dinner and spent the night with an old missionary companion of Dave's.  They lived right on the Snake River, and took us four wheeling around their property.

When we reached Rexburg, Andrea was surprised by how small the town was.  But when she saw all the activities going on on campus to welcome new students, she was excited.  We dropped her off here at her brand new dorms.
