A Fun Look Back

Youth Temple Trip...Atlanta 1994
The Trip of a life time. I would plan one all over again in a heart beat. Three Busloads of amazing Young people along with their chaperones and leaders for one week in Atlanta.
To see more photos from this trip and other Stuart Stake Youth Events from 1992-1995, click HERE.
The Leaders and Chaperons
Neil Harreveld, Me, Mary Allred, Mark Arntz, Janis Arntz, Rick Norton, Lamar Brown, Lorna Rhinehart, Mike Kremkau, Cathy Kremkau, Judy Norton, Connie Settle, Tom Settle, Carol Brown, Larry Estey, Blaine East, Cathy East, Gary Anderson, Chris Rhinehart, John Archie, Glen Phelps, Glenn Butterfield, Gerald Sides, Barbara Price, Linda Atkinson.

Unlike the adult photo, I did not write the names of the Youth under each photo (so unlike me)
Help me name the Youth in the following photos...I can name most.
Peter Van Akin, Ben Allred, Beth Smarinsky, Robin Archie, Debbie Chilson, Christina Brown, Ryan Anderson, Rick Estey, Larry Estey, Blaine East....
Melissa Norton, Amanda Myer, Katie Rosebrough, Jenny Rhinehart, Cathy East, Carissa Della Pietra, Rick Norton, Curt Hostetler, Edwin Collazos,

The two Nancys...Pennington and Allred, Josh Della Pietra, Robert Brown, Daniel Allred, Alex Sotelo, Aaron Collazos, Carol and Lamar Brown, Lorna Rhinehart....
Who else can you name?
Did you go on this trip?
Do you remember it?

Andrew In Atlanta

Warning: The next few posts are heavy on family photos and events. Hang in there with me..... I had to document Andrew's trip to Atlanta and a few other family events. Summer and family gatherings go together!
Doing What The Family Enjoys Most
Eating......
Here The are At On The Border in Atlanta
A night out to dinner with family.
Uncle Brent, Matthew, and Camille
Uncle Mark, Uncle Brent, and Matthew
Uncle Brent, Matthew, and Camille
The entire trip was not all play.... There was time to for everyone
to pitch in and help Uncle Brent get some household projects
done.
Here are Uncle Robert, Grandpa, and Joel at Brent's Condo
Mark helping with a household project for Uncle Brent.

World Of Coca Cola

Another Family Favorite
World Of Coca Cola In Atlanta
Moved from the location at Underground Atlanta.
Andrew's report is....World Of Coca-Cola is NOT
as good as used to be. As always, regardless of
changes, Andrew had a great time.
There is still the exciting..."All You Care To Drink"
Sodas with flavors from around the world. Andrew was
especially excited to find the "Inca Cola" he
enjoyed in Peru. After drinking all this soda...
then the family visits The Varsity Restaurant...
(see the next post)
what an attack on the stomach...it can only be
done once in a blue moon.
Here is Andrew in downtown Atlanta with some of
his cousins.
This is Andrew's Uncle Mark, not sure if he is driving to or from
Downtown Atlanta.
Can you name the cousin under this Coca Cola Carton?
I am going to say...Max.... maybe this is his Break Dancing
Costume????
Grandma, Jenni, Robert, and Mark at the hotel in Atlanta.
Brent, Grandpa, Matthew, and Josh at the hotel.
In the background, Joel is with Ashley and Kristina

Andrew at Turner Field. The Braves were on the road or he would have been at a game. Andrew loves his Major League Baseball. Especially, The Florida Marlins. At least we know they have ONE loyal fan in Andrew!
Andrew had a great time traveling with Grandpa and Grandma. He got to see Aunts, Uncles, and Cousins in one of his favorite cities....Atlanta!!!

Fine Dining In Atlanta

The Varsity Restaurant
Atlanta is known for it's restaurants and fine dining.
The Varsity Restaurant is on the list of famous-must-visit
restaurants. It is, however, NOT on the list of fine dining.
The greasiest burgers and fries in town. One visits The Varsity
for the experience....not the food. The Orange Freezes, in my
opinion, are worth the trip, though. It is like a step back in time when
one walks into The Varsity. Burgers and Fries served straight
from the original 1950's atmosphere.
If you are in Atlanta....Visit The Varsity!
Andrew, in keeping with family tradition, made a visit to The
Varsity with Grandpa, Grandma, Aunts, Uncles, and Cousins.
He even went a few days later with his friend, Lauren.
Twice in ONE WEEK=Heaven for Andrew...
Here is Grandma and Andrew enjoying every last bite and
slurp....

Below, Andrew is enjoying more gastronomical delights
with his Uncle, Grandpa, and Grandma

I am certain that Andrew could have stayed longer and
eaten more than anyone else. He LOVES this place!
Apparently, The Varsity has added Salads to their menu
choices. Somehow, this is supposed to balance out
all the grease and other yummo delights?????
Here is Mark in front of the Salad Cooler (which looks
a little out of place with the rest of the 50's fixtures)
If you are going to The Varsity....it is NOT for salad.
The Varsity is just one of hundreds of reasons to LOVE
Atlanta!!!
When ordering a Plain Hot Dog....You will be entertained
when the person behind the counter calls back to the kitchen...
"One Naked Dog...On The Way"
If you order that Plain Hot Dog "To Go"...he will say...
"One Naked Dog...Walking"
Just ordering is an entertaining experience.
