SKT and DAT Families Reuion - Zion - June 29 to July 23, 2024

The families of Stephen and David Taylor met at Zion Ponderosa Ranch, just east of Zion NP for a delightful get together: slide show, games, hikes, hot tub, swimming, park time, star gazing, food, visiting, excursions to Maynard Dixon's home and studio, and lots of fun.

June 2024

June was bustin' out all over. The Provo Temple came tumbling down. Matt, Kim, and Brigham came to Utah and we got together a couple of times, including a trip to the Uinta Basin. We met with The Group for a fun Disney-themed dinner at the Ostergars, Anna an Clara came to stay, and finally, my history/memoire was published. We also held a reunion that spilled into July with Stephen's family at Zion, but that will be a separate post.

Down she comes: some of us are not happy about it
