Vacation!! Part 3

We went to Park City, Utah - where the 2002 Winter Olympic Games were held. 



this is what the ski jumpers use to practice in the summer time. cool, eh?!

see the dude jumping off? he did a 360 flip!

this was a 'pretend to hold the Olympic torch' thingy
the zip line! me on the left, my brother on the right. twas a beautiful view. 





large rock on a stump... Noah and both agreed it looked very much like a dragon's egg. :O
love the "sun spot" right there - so cool


trees - they're so beautiful. 

the track I'm flying down :D

for some reason.... I just love this picture. 

all thanks to God almighty for making such gorgeous places!
