John Gerritsen and Rob were missionary companions in Argentina more than 50 years ago. The Gerritsens have a cabin up in Brighton, and they invited us up to spend the night. The Jim McKeans joined us. too, for dinner.
The McKeans and Gerritsens brought souvenirs from Argentina to show!

After dinner and the McKeans left, Rob and John played pool.
Here it is in the daytime! They have a 1/8th share - sleeps ten or so.
The next day we had a great walk around Twin Lakes. Such a nice relaxing break!
This rock commemorates the first Statewide Pioneer Day Celebration in July 23-24, 1857 - ten years after the pioneers arrived in the Salt Lake Valley. There were brass bands, militia, horses, etc. In the middle of the celebration they learned that Johnston's Army was headed to Salt Lake, so they all had to quickly head back down the canyon to prepare. This marks the beginning of the lake walk.
Apparently, there are two lakes when the water is low, but just one when it is high. We were able to experience just one beautiful lake.!
