Heather and I went to the concert in the park this past Tuesday night. We really have not had the chance to visit much since our European Excursion back in April. It was in the Brigham Young memorial park by the Church Office Building. There were quite a few people there, most of which were the older generation that lives in the apartment buildings around there.We listened to the National Guard West Coast Band. They were really good and it was a lot of fun. There was a phenominal Clarinet player! Wow, I could not believe the notes that she was hitting and the way she played her Clarinet. I do feel somewhat educated in this matter since I played the instrument for 5 years. I did give her a standing ovation...and I think there were only a couple others who followed suit. Perhaps the age of the people made that difficult to stand or perhaps they just are not trained in the difficulty what she did. 
So, this picture didn't turn out...the temple was so pretty with the sunset behind...which you can't really see. Oh and I didn't notice the lovely phone wires when I took the picture.
The Hollyhocks were so pretty by the Lion House...it made me think of Grandma Raymond's Hollyhocks.
After the concert we walked around temple square and had dinner. We tried to eat at one of our favorite bakeries. We walked in at 9:45 and seated ourselves at the table and they pretty much ignored us for the 5 minutes that we sat there. Yes, Michelle I was going in 15 minutes before closing. So we decided to order some desserts to go. We then found ourselves at Hires and ate a very messy sandwich!
It was great to spend time with Heather and catch up on life after vacation.
