LIVING IN & LOVING MIDWAY:
My First Trip to Midway:
I was just a young girl when my mother took our family on a weekend trip to Midway. She took us to the Homestead Resort; this was a real treat for us kids. We loved swimming in the big heated pool and my mom loved relaxing in the hot pool. I remember thinking; this would be heaven to be able to live in a place like this...

My Next Trip 8 years later:
When I was first married and going on one of our first trips camping and fishing, we stayed at the Wasatch Mountain State Park because there were no camping spots available at Deer Creek State Park. It was secluded and just 15 minutes away from Deer Creek. While there we drove around the small Swiss Mountain Village of Midway, that's when we first fell in love with this wonderful place and dreamed of living here someday!

Every year after that we would always make a point to drive through Heber City and Midway on our way to Strawberry or Deer Creek State Park to go fishing and camping. Many years later we would take our children to the Jordanelle State Park when it opened to go camping and water skiing.
In August of 2003 we decided it was time to find a building lot for our Dream Home, that's when the Good Lord blessed us with our land on River Road- just west of Memorial Hill. We would go there each weekend to work on our lot for our new home. I remember staying there in our motor home on the Fourth of July and watching the fireworks on Memorial Hill. I felt like they were just for us. At first I was worried we would not fit in with the people of Midway, but they welcomed us with open arms. And since moving here we have never felt so much a part of a community as we do here.
