Hike to Ensign Peak with some Senate wives

Yesterday, during Intrum Day for the legislators, a few of us Senate wives decided to hike Ensign Peak, (which is located just above the capital) It had just stopped raining and was a muddy mess!
But after much slipping and sliding in the mudd we made it. What a fabulous view of the Salt Lake Valley. This was the same hike that Brigham Young took to lay out the city in 1847.
Salt Lake is below us. We have Georgia Knudsen, Anna Kaye Waddoups, Janis Christensen,Lane Hinkins, Merilee Stowell, and Me. Erin Maddson is taking this picture. We then met up with about 5 -6 more wives for lunch. All the pages (which are ladies that help out during the session) came too. Which made for about 25 of us for lunch at a little quaint cafe called "Em's". I'm just sooo glad that the weather held out for us.

That looks fun...I wish I could go on a hike right now instead of laying on the couch waiting for Austin to get home.

P.S. The cabin fiasco sounds like it was kind of crazy. Sorry we couldn't be there to help!
