Alpine Trip

As I write this, I am in the Valley of the Great Salt Lake visiting family. Today my parents and I went to see my cousin's house in Alpine. In the past the house, which dates back to pioneer times belonged to my grandparents on my Mom's side, and before that, to my Great Grandpa Healey.
My Cousin, Danny, has done a great job restoring and updating the interior. It really looks nice. Our family lived there for a year or two when I was in first and second grade. Later, when my grandma and grandpa Healey lived there, I would go stay with them for a week or so in the summer, usually around hay hauling time. Its hard to believe its the same house.

For know I am just going to post some pictures, later I will edit this post and put them in order and caption the pictures. As you can see, the remodel is not quite done, but I'm glad Danny (or at least his Mom!) let us wander around the construction site.

Without further ado, here are some pictures:

Hey Matt,

You've done a great job capturing a lot of the soulful goodness of the old homestead! I'll look forward to coming back and reading your captions. It was great seeing you last night and catching up a bit. As I said in parting, "Next time in Maine!" (which is a variation of what the Jews say every year at Passover, "Next time in Jerusalem!")
