Fall Break Activities



Brittany and I started the morning off by going to Gardner Village to look at the Halloween decorations and witches.  Of course it rained. 






Ran some other errands before heading home to take a nap for a little while.  Then tonight we went to the Sundance Halloween Chair Lift Ride.  Ended up being pretty fun.  However, we had to wait from 7-8:30 before we finally got on.  A few around 7:00 got on but then it got closed down due to thunder and lightening at the top.  Finally at 8:30 we were allowed on, when we were on our way back down the ride it started lightening and thundering again, so they closed it down for the rest of the night.  Glad we got on.

Comet C/2023 A3 (Tsuchinshan-ATLAS) aka Comet A3


There is a comet that only comes every 80,000 years.  Brittany and I went to see it.  We drove the back way from our house towards Tooele.  We stopped in a pull out called Sunshine Canyon Road for our observations of the comet.  It was really quite cool.  Brittany brought her telescope along as well.
