We love a small town Fourth of July. In Minnesota, we always went to Stillwater for a beautiful old-time Fourth of July with friends on the St. Croix River. A little tip off from friend Deena sent us this year to Huntsville, Utah.
On the actual "4th," we visited the Golden Spike Monument for a little re-enactment of where the two railroads met to connect the country and a bumpy trip on a gravel road to the Spiral Jetty. To tell you the truth, I love historical and art sites, but I could leave the road trips. Road trips are just not my specialty. Josh is the one who inspires trips like these.
Somehow is seemed very patriotic to see this re-enactment of the railroads connecting the country.
The Spiral Jetty is really neat. However, the minivan had a rough time. Might I suggest four-wheel drive?
