Our final full day in Utah was spent with Grandma and Grandpa Nelson at Heritage Park. This is a park that has a pioneer town set up in it. They have a lot of older houses and buildings from that era that are part of the park. You get to ride around on a train that takes you to different stops along the way and you can tour the various homes and buildings there. The kids panned for gold at one of the stops. Then they went into a school house and Joseph got into trouble as you can see from the picture. You know Joseph, always a trouble maker! Then the kids were able to take some pony rides which they loved. They got to ride on the ponies name Chip, Dale, and Lucky. They rode the ponies three different times. We then almost sold Joseph to the tanner in the town as an apprentice and then at the last moment changed our minds! We ended the afternoon by visiting the "This is the Place" monument which was built as a memorial to when the Saints first entered the Salt Lake valley and Brigham Young said "This is the right place, drive on!" We had a great time and a fun trip.
