The other night our family had a picnic up American Fork canyon. I love picnic season! And I love that we're close enough to the canyon to go up often for dinner. The weather was beautiful and it was great to get away from the heat in the valley. My niece Alyssa had a great time as well. We were on a walk and saw a big, black beetle. We watched it for a minute before it crawled off into the grass. Alyssa spent the rest of the evening calling, "Beetle...Big Beetle...Where are you? Here Beetle!" We tried to explain to her that the beetle had gone home to go to bed, but when that didn't fly, we spent several more walks looking for the beetle. It was pretty cute! I'm glad she's a girly girl who's not afraid of bugs and getting dirty!
We drove up to Tibble Fork before heading home and saw a young moose drinking from the resevoir. Then at the bottom of the canyon we saw several big horn sheep climbing the cliffs. A wildlife biologist who was also watching the sheep talked to us for a while and told us about the herd, which was very nice of him. It was quite the picnic!
