Bridal Veil Falls Walk

On Sunday, we decided to get out of the house and go for a little walk up to Bridal Veil Falls in Provo Canyon. There’s a little fish pond at the bottom of the falls that we didn’t know about, and the boys had fun watching the fish. A nice man gave Bennett a quarter so he could buy some fish food to feed them.

On Tuesday, I took the kids back for the same walk with some of the other MBA wives & kids. We walked quite a bit farther past the falls, and Bennett loved riding his bike (balance bike) on the path. On the way back to the parking lot, he kept riding ahead of me where I couldn’t see him. I kept trying to catch up, but he would slow down until he could see me (but couldn’t hear me yelling to him) then race ahead again. As we were getting close to the end, he fell going down a fairly steep hill and banged up his chin and hand. His helmet has a little mark in it where it hit the pavement, so fortunately, it saved him from being hurt worse! It was again a beautiful walk and right at the peak of the fall colors. It had been raining off and on that morning, and the fog and clouds looked pretty cool in the canyon.
