Sunday Drives

When I was growing up, we would often load the car with picnic items and go for a Sunday drive. The destination wasn't always known, we would just drive and explore. As kids, our favorite locations would to be a lake or a good spooky Ghost Town. There are quite a few ghost towns in Utah, and this guy tells of the ones he has visited and gives a little history. There are even some pics posted of what you might see. His favorite town is Frisco.
On our Sunday drives, we visited a few towns but I don't remember their names. What made them fun for us is that our imaginations could lead us to believe we would bump into a phony spook and unmask a money hungry villain. I imagine the Scooby-doo show had influenced our beliefs that every ghost town had such a mystery.

In celebration of the blue sky and warm weather we're enjoying here, Levi and I enjoyed a Sunday drive yesterday afternoon. We explored the west side of Utah Lake and dreamed of more warm days. We drove through some areas that have the good old town feel, but only a short distance away the charm ends with new developments. Needless to say, there is no hope that those charming old towns will form into a ghost town anytime soon.
