Return of the Nooks

Unfortunately, Turkey Day and Mr. Eck's birthday are now behind us. But there is some good news: the NOOKS have returned to the 21st CCLC Lounge, complete with updates. We are working away at credit recovery, with many students nearing completion of their courses. A movie club has begun, which at this point consists of a list of movies we want to watch written on the board! So we'll dive into December, and maybe a sledding club? :)

Vacation Pics

Our final stop on the way back to Idaho was the Golden Spike National Monument, which marks the place where the transcontinental railroad was finally completed.



We spent three days visiting my grandparents near St. George. We visited parks, the historic Brigham Young home and St. George temple, went swimming, at at In-N-Out Burger, and more.


This arch in Bryce Canyon National Park is called "Natural Bridge."













At elevations as high as over 9,000 feet, the views of Bryce Canyon were truly amazing.


































Our first stop was Temple Square in Salt Lake City. We made it all the way there from Caldwell with only one stop!
