Made an unexpected trip to the City of Rocks and Castle Rock.  Weather has been quite nice the last 3 weeks or so here in SLC and usually mid/late-summer trips to the City can be hot.  Forecasts called for mid to high 70’s and clear skies–perfect weather.  We ended up chasing shade a little but over it was a great weekend.
