SLC sojourns; Surprise you're (Anna) 26!

Donna added up 8 visits to Salt Lake City in 2013 to visit Anna and Nic, the last three of which came in a 6 week period in November and December.  Trips as always included hiking and snowshoeing in the Wasatch front canyons just outside of Salt Lake City, and eating out at favorite haunts in the SLC area. We also attended Anna and Nic's "friend's giving", held the weekend before Thanksgiving, and surprised Anna on her 26th birthday (December 13th).  1100 miles roundtrip each time we go, but no problem for the Halffield road warriors.  Here are some pics from these great trips.
