Locals + Culture

Watching a family grow is one of our favorite things. This one, in particular, has been a treat to know, so when we were offered a little insight into the sweet life they’ve created in Layton, we happily hopped to it. Donuts were the currency of choice to persuade a certain (very small) tour guide to show us around.

But our favorite part, perhaps, is the back yard. It’s idyllic as they come, and the garden, in particular, is a sweet space to seek solace and do a bit of growing (however it may apply). Yes, the lives lived here are happy ones, no doubt, and we’re happy to’ve gotten a glimpse.

It’s the sweet life, indeed…

We recently passed the keys to a home tucked just beside one of Salt Lake’s most intriguing landmarks — a red-brick beauty resting quietly along the edge of Gilgal Gardens. It was the kind of property that stops you in your tracks — full of soul, a little mysterious, and surrounded by the sort of...
