Jon realized he got almost the whole month of December off at BYU. We thought maybe we should take advantage and go on a family vacation. But then we realized Tanner started working at the UPS store and that's their busiest time of the year. So then we thought we can still take a week and go somewhere fun. Jon came up with the idea to go to the cabin and do lots of fun things in the area. It ended up being 4 days but that was still great too.
Sitting in the front yard of the cabin waiting to go. It was in the teens which was way better than it had been.
First, you get on an escalator that takes you up the first hill.
Then you sit in your tube and your rope is hooked to a cable that takes you the rest of the way up the hill.
This is Tanner at the top. There's 4 big tracks and you can go head first or as a train or safely sitting. It's pretty fast and there's nothing in the way, it felt like a water slide.
The next day we took Trax to the new mall City Creek in downtown Salt Lake. We had also planned to go to a Museum but got too tired.
We had to wait about 15 minutes for the train.
We arrived at the mall and decided to take a family picture. Jon's mom met us at the cabin and went shopping with us.
It looks like in the summer they can open up the ceiling. It's a beautiful mall.
They had an amazing toy store that we spent most our time in. Maddie found a great stache.
It's right by the SL Temple
It was a pretty fun Staycation.

Wow, much different stay cation than actually tubing IN city creek. I was hopeful when I saw the title, and actually imagined Jon getting in trouble with the mall cops. But the way you did it is okay too...
