In Sandy

Today I traveled to Sandy for a food show.  The show was good.  I found most of the things we were looking for.  There was a customer appreciation meal/ concert this evening.  I went for a few, the food was interesting as was the entertainment.   There was a lot of drinking which is not my scene at all so I hit the road.  I ran up to our old neighborhood and looked at our old houses.  That is fun and brings back some wonderful memories. 

I plan to visit the Temple while I am here.  Originally I thought I would go tonight but I am pretty tired and didn't want to fall asleep in the session so I am going in the morning.  I drove up to the Draper Temple just to check it out.  It is a beautiful building.  I was also quite amazed at how much Draper has grown in the last 28 years. 

I also took a drive up to see Grandpa Al and Grandma Vi's gravestone.  That is also a place of memories, a special place.  I am grateful for the lives of my grandparents and for the influence they have had on my life. 

It has been a nice visit to the area.  I will head home tomorrow afternoon.  Glad I was able to make the trip.
