Sandy Beach is a really fun place to play in the summer, I have spent countless hours there. It’s one of the only places in Utah Lake where the bottom is sand instead of stinky mud and the water doesn’t really get deep – I can walk hundreds of feet out into the lake and still have my feet on the ground. It’s a fun place for fires and playing with kids in the water.

The granite grist stone came from the first flour mill founded in Springville City. The mill was built in 1883 by Moses Childs, great grandfather to Ada Childs Taylor. The mill stood approximately 100 feet north of this location. (Conover Park)

A few doors down from me in the backyard is a huge tree, my neighbor told me that it’s a Korean Poplar and that some people from a state society told him it was possibly the tallest tree in Utah, at least in the top 3 and they’d let him know. It’s really cool.

I was at a basketball game in the gym that used to be part of the original Springville High School. I took a few pictures because I really liked the look of it and the historic feel of it.
I talked to Doug Young while there, he told me about attending Brigham Young Academy over at the BYU Women’s Gym and how they came here to play their basketball games and to watch the BYU team play and practice.
