12) Provo Canyon Adventures

After Family Home Evening one Monday night, I met two girls that live on the floor below me. I told them that I usually went running in the evenings, and they said they liked to go running too! I was excited to find friends that would be in my ward and I could go to activities with.

My two new friends are named Maddie and Ashlee.  A few weeks later, Maddie said that she was in a photo class and needed to finish a project photographing people using different colors.  Her plan was to take a bunch of friends up Provo Canyon and take their pictures with the fall leaves.  She invited me to come a long and I did.

We arrived in the canyon about 6:00pm and did not have very much sunlight left.  We walked around and saw the ski lift, the restaurants, and nice trails.  The trees were deep yellows, oranges, and some pinks and purples.  The ski lift was taking people up and down the hill side to show off the changing leaves. 

It was very fun walking around and seeing all the pretty streams and taking photos.  We all had our turn participating in a photo shoot. 

Once it got dark outside, we made it back to the parking lot and drove back to the dorm.  Overall, it was very fun and I got to make lots of new friends.
