Audrey and I went to Salt Lake today. We met Shaniel in Riverton. Carson had a pre-op appointment with the Cardiologist for his heart surgery scheduled for November 2nd.
Afterwards, we headed West toward Herriman to find a cloth diaper store Audrey located on the internet. As we got closer, we started weaving in and out of residential single housing subdivisions. We went through a very nice subdivision that led us to a dirt road. "Is this for real! We checked the address again.12948.... you've got to be kidding!" A run down house in a dirt patch with beat up cars all around. No business sign and no sign of a business. We were apprehensive about going up the dirt road. Audrey inched her way to the house and cautiously knocked on the ratty door. I was sitting in the car with the kids, ready to make a quick get-away if needed. A face appeared from behind a torn curtain in the window next to the door. Soon, the door opened and a young lady, probably in her late twenties or early thirties, greeted Audrey with a huge smile on her face. She was plump, a little unkempt, but very personable. We had found the right place!
The store was in somewhat condition as the lady that ran it. Just a little unkempt, but pleasant. That was a surprise. We spent about a half hour browsing the cloth diapers and educational toys and puzzles. The kids had a blast playing. I bought Ben a puzzle and Alia a Ballerina Magnetic Doll Set. One thing I learned today... don't judge a store by it's cover!
