Today we started out walking down Main Street Park City for the Silly Street Fair. Which was basically a craft boutique and food booth fair. Lots of fun things to look at. I am horrible at craft fairs though because I look at all the items and f figure out how I can make them myself :)
The highlight of the fair was the booth of gluten free baked goods. We thoroughly enjoyed cookies, crumb cake, and an apple pie. Yum!
Next we took a drive up Guardsman Pass to check out the fall color. Today is the perfect day since there is an expected storm coming tonight to knock all the leaves down. We had fun stopping along the way to check out the viewpoints and waterfalls. So gorgeous that the camera could hardly capture its beauty.
Next we took a funicular ride up a hill to the St.Regis Hotel in Deer Valley. We were promised the very best food in town. We decided to go for lunch since the prices would be a little more reasonable. It is amazing when you are handed a plate of food with half the portion of a traditional meal and you feel a little jipped, but after you take your first bite you know that you aren't paying for quantity but Quality (with a capital Q). My mouth was having a party with all the wonderful flavors. I had a sockeye salmon with 4 potato slices and 3 snap peas, but they were out of this world. For dessert I got a salted caramel ice cream sundae topped with fudge, peanuts, and caramel popcorn. Yum yum! Ally got the blueberry topped cheesecake so she could properly develop her cheesecake palate after having a peanut butter cheesecake last night. So far this one was the winner :)
Next we headed back to our hotel where we checked out the game room and played some pool, then Ally went for swim in the liquid pool while I read my book poolside. :)
Needing a calorie break, Clarence came to our hotel where I made some chicken and asparagus. The boys watched the football game and Ally and I kept busy relaxing. A good end to a lovely day. These last pictures from St. Regis are from my cell phone, don't know why they turned out so grainy.
