I journeyed to Cache County on Monday. The drive was about an hour or longer. It was really fun because Tizzy and Ptolemy were there.
We ate lunch at KFC overlooking the Logan Temple, which you can see from all over Logan, the county seat of Cache County.
After lunch, we stopped to ask directions from a guy who asked us if he could have a ride. He was going the same direction as we were, and he was walking. So we drove him to his destination, which was the library on the Utah State campus. He showed us where the famous Aggie ice cream shop was. They had many different flavors and we got mini cups. The girl behind the counter let us have two different kinds in our cups. I got raspberry sherbet and cookie dough. Ptolemy got the famous Aggie Blue, blue mint with Oreos and white chocolate, and he got orange sherbet. My mom got chocolate almond and chocolate cookie dough. Can you tell who likes chocolate the most in my family?

The coolest part was when we went to the honey shop, Cox Honeyland. They had honey sticks, crystallized honey, fudge, normal honey and finally, they had giant honey bears. Inside the gift shop, they had a bee hive! The bees had only been working on the hive for two weeks, so it wasn't as big as it will be. The lady told us to come back at the end of the summer, and the hive would be up to the top. See how there is only one row of honeycomb so far?

You missed the cheese factory and fresh cheese curds! Now you have to go back! Does someone perhaps have a county report?
Freestone, next time you go there are a few different places to see. Go to Juniper Take Out or the Old Grist Mill and grab a lunch. Bring a blanket with you and head to Willow Park. Check out the zoo there. It is small but fun. Gossners Cheese factory is a hit with squeaky cheese and milk in a box. Give the chocolate or the strawberry a go! At the mouth of Logan Canyon there is first dam. Feed the ducks! Cache Valley is wonderful.
I loved the photos and the Aggie blue mint ice cream is divine! I hope you get to go back and have more fun.
Thanks for the trip down memory lane. Go Aggies!
What a fun day trip. I swear.... I was just there. :) Oh wait, I was. :) There is a darling candy counter inside The Bluebird. Chocolate, yum! The kids are cute.
