When we need a â¬Skid fixâ¬ý we vacation with our nieces/nephews. ATV enthusiasts, we planned an ATV trip in the mountains of Utah, and my brotherâ¬"s family joined us. We rented a cabin, some ATVâ¬"s, and headed off for a week in the wild. My brotherâ¬"s car broke down, so we left him waiting for parts, and took his wife and kids, ages 7 and 4 with us. Once there, we realized that the kids cold-weather clothes were still in their dadâ¬"s car, miles away. It rained every day, so we layered all our clothes on the kids and took them on the ATVâ¬"s. Weâ¬"d return to the cabin, soaked, and build a fire. When the clothes were dry, the kids would be â¬Sready for more riding.â¬ý One day in hard rain, we were on a trail in the mountains. We stopped in a clearing and the sun came out with the most beautiful rainbow. My niece said to her mom â¬Sthis is where rainbows come from.â¬ý We experienced some of the best scenery this country has to offer. No matter how cold and wet, we asked the kids what they wanted to do, they answered go faster, Uncle Jon!
