<\/a>\nWe went to Utah to visit my niece who is now living there with her husband, and although it was a brief stay of just a week, we packed so much in. A night in a cabin in the beautiful Wasatch Mountains, where we barbecued and went running at 10,000 feet; phew, hard work, I was breathless, that altitude is hard on the lungs! (It was also in bear country – luckily we didn\u2019t run into any bears but we did see some very cute chipmunks).<\/p>\n A couple of days in Salt Lake City, where we wandered the beautiful Red Butte Gardens and got to see inside the Capitol building. And then a few days in the stunning Zion National Park in south west Utah, where we marvelled at the red cliffs, rivers and canyons – some of the most incredible scenery I\u2019ve ever had the pleasure of running, walking and driving through. I could talk about it all day but instead here are a few photos to give you a flavour.<\/p>\n Back to work now though, but staying with the outdoors theme, hiking boots are having a real fashion moment and Skechers<\/a> are bringing us a great Today\u2019s Special Value offer on Saturday 19th. The Glacial Ultra Suede Lace-Up Boot comes in six colours (Black, Chestnut, Navy, Chocolate, Taupe and Burgundy) and of course you don\u2019t have to find a mountain to climb in these, they will look great with jeans or leggings and are super comfortable and practical for those cooler days. Great price too.<\/p>\n I\u2019ve already seen people chatting about it on social media and talking about buying more than one set for Christmas gifts – makes sense!<\/p>\n Right, back to the ironing… see you soon!<\/p>\n Love Jackie x<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Hi everyone, I\u2019m keeping this blog short as I\u2019ve just got back from a trip to the US and am frantically trying to get the washing and ironing done, the lawn mowed and a hundred other things sorted before I\u2019m back to work tomorrow with a 3am wake up call!
