Spent the weekend with the local Scout Troop on Antelope Island, my first time, it was fabulous.  I’ve forgotten how much energy those boys have.  The picture of my son, Mike, is looking from the Fielding-Garr ranch on the east side of the island back toward the Layton/Kaysville area.  Antelope and Buffalo scattered all over the improved portion of the island.  Quite a sight.

Mike and I and the Scouts toured the Flight Museum at Hill Air Force Base for a couple hours on our way home from the island.  My first time to the museum, there wasn’t enough time to read all the plaques.  One could easily spend an entire day perusing the exhibits.

What a great time we had with the Young Men–Scouts–at these two “Jewels” of our great state.
