My family spent Thanksgiving weekend in Park City. We stayed in a couple of condos. We ate a lot, played a lot of games, and watched a lot of football and basketball. We also did some midnight shopping at the Outlet Mall on Friday, followed by a quick run to Wal-Mart just to say that we had been there at two in the morning. I won’t tell you what I bought on my shopping expedition (‘tis the season for secrets) but I will tell you that I did some good work.
The other major event was our annual “Scandinavian Cleanse.” My brother Tyson served his mission in Sweden, and he claims that Scandinavians have a tradition of rolling around in the snow before jumping into a hot tub. When we spend Thanksgiving in Park City, we participate in this “cleansing” tradition as well. Even me! But I don’t do it for health benefits – I do it so my younger brothers and sister can’t make fun of me for NOT doing it. It’s probably the dumbest thing I do all year. The walk back to the condo is always so cold!
