July 24, 2007 Pioneer Day in Utah!

Rather than watching the big parade in nearby Salt Lake City, our neighborhood had a fundraiser for a baby born with some problems. A parade, a silent auction, games and activities raised several thousand dollars from mostly the neighbors. Robert bid and won a gourmet meal for twelve by one of Utah's top chefs, a friend of the baby's grandfather. Lisa and Topher came with their kids. Pictured are Phoebe, Miles and Own on their decorated bikes. Remember the Pioneers! Great grandfather arrived in Utah in 1853 and lived with his small family in an adobe shack for years. Look at our homes today!
