7 Wonders

Camille had a date awhile ago where the young man introduced her to several of his "wonders of Rexburg."  After a lot of sitting today as we watched conference, I was ready to exercise a few muscles, so I decided to take our three youngest to visit the 4 wonders of Rexburg.  As we rode our bikes, the 4 wonders became 7.  I had a few other spots I wanted to share.  My 7 wonders on October 2, 2010 included:  Snoasis, Sunrise Village, Eliza R. Snow Building, Crestwood, the Temple, Madison High School, and Dairy Queen.  (These could change on any given day, but today these were what came to mind.)


So here they are.......

The Seven Wonders Of Rexburg on October 2, 2010

1.  *Snoasis has provided a great summer job for my oldest daughters.  It is an excellent job for teaching money skills, responsibility, and working with others.  This 7th wonder was included because Sarah was there and needed a book.







2.  *Sunrise Village was the apartment I lived in during my time at Ricks.  #13 to be exact.







3.  *23 years ago the Snow Building was occupied a good share of the time by Dave and myself as we worked on becoming better teachers of music .  Many of our music classes were held in this building.







4.  *Crestwood was the apartment complex where Dave lived during school and courting.





5.  *Temple is for sure a wonder.  It is beautiful and glorious.






6.  *Madison High School was after all the reason we came back to Rexburg.  The pictures show off the brand new building that opened this year.








7.  *Dairy Queen was a spot where Dave and I frequented in our early dating time.  We walked down from campus to try the flavors.  Yummy!




Our bike ride was pretty rigourous.  We rode for about 2 1/2 hours.  The kids were good sports and held out until the end.

So, there you have it!  The Seven Wonders of Rexburg!
