Babylon in the cheap jeep!

This is our cheap jeep(otherwise known as a Samurai) we have more fun going on the dirt roads around our area. The grandkids are always ready to go with g-pa to fun places. G-ma went with them this time and even went swimming in her clothes in the river.Sorry I did not post pictures of me but if you come g-pa videoed me in the river. Not funny!
This is way cool Austin, it was hot enough and very private down by the river that he loved going swimming. It was just like being at a minature grand canyon and the best part is, hardly anyone knows where it is.
This is Jayden, she is always ready to swim....24-7. She had a blast.
Austin and Jayden loved that there was some good deep spots, over even my head so they could jump in and swim and they liked the rapids part to so they could float a little.

After swimming g-pa took us to some of the old silver mines which is why there was such a place as Babylon. The story is told how some pioneers that were new to the area for mining of silver wanted to distance themselves from all the "Mormons" so they made their own town and named it Babylon. I will tell you it is one pretty place and not that far from real civilization.
Doesn't Jayden look cute with her two front teeth missing? I will put more adventures of the cheap jeep on.

We want to go there when we visit next summer! Or would it be warm enough in the winter there?
