Wasatch State Park

We took a leisurely walk over to the Johannes Huber homestead. This man was a Swiss convert, the first Swiss mission president, translated the Book of Mormon into German, and wrote poetry in addition to farming and raising his children here. It looked idyllic.
Then we read about how they only had moldy grain one winter and decided it was tougher than he made it sound in the snippets from his journal.
We played in the orchard and in the stream. We picked some apples. We translated his words to a German hymn.
Some of us ran around and got good and muddy and had a ball.
