Porter's Place...

As I mentioned before we have a little thing for Porter Rockwell.In Lehi, Utah there is a restaurant called Porter's Place.
We have drove past it many times and said we would wait until Kirk could eat with us. But, because he wasn't able to visit because of work we were not leaving Utah with out checking it out.

I am so glad we did.
This little guy was waiting to greet us.
Though out the entire restaurant there were pictures and paintings of Porter.
The atmosphere was great.


and the food was amazing. We just had burgers and sandwiches, where all the bread is made on location, and it was unbelievable. The prices were much better than what I was expecting.and the company was wonderful. Next time MAYBE Kirk and even Derek can join us.

Porter Rockwell

Derek read a book about Porter Rockwell when he was young and always liked the story about this "Avenging Angel".
So, when I told him that the museum in Lehi, Utah had a bunch of Porter Rockwell's "stuff" because he had a home here, he immediately wanted to go check it out.
Derek was pretty excited when he was getting to touch "HIS" saddle.
This statue is setting on the ground of of where Porter's one home was.

We had lots of fun looking at all the amazing old western history that we had read about in home school.
