Park City Ghost Tours

Before school started back in the Fall, Matt and I decided to go up to my family's cabin and enjoy a weekend. I have always wanted to ride our bikes on the Rail Trail by Park City. I did it a while back and loved it. It took a lot of time loading and unloading our bikes but we finally made it. It was gorgeous weather and with clear skies. As we rode we stopped to read little plaques about the history and about the railroad that would be on the same trail. I want to do it again in the summer. So much fun to get out and be together. We then headed to Park City because we had a Groupon for The Ghost Tours on Park City's Main Street. I have always wanted to do it. Little did we know that it was the Summer Arts Festival and it was so busy. we almost didn't make it. We had to run all the way up the main street to the top to finally make it AND to pay extra for the arts festival to get in. 

We finally found a man dressed in black in a cloak with a staff and two teenage girls as the group we met up with. I was so embarrassed, people were staring at us the whole time as the guide told the stories. He was very animated. We would walk around to historic houses and he would tell us old ghost stories that supposedly happened. It started to get really interesting and fun! 

Every time a story ended the guide would make us say with spirit fingers, "Say goodbye to the ghost"! So at every house we would wave goodbye to the ghosts. Ha Ha it was all part of the experience, but I learned that Park City was a bad place before it became a ski town. With the mines it was a terrible place: Prostitutes, murders, alcohol, gambling, drugs. The Chinese would sell drugs under the bridge by Main Street. 

We then headed home and got dinner on the way one of my favorite days EVER!!

There were these cool animals that moved at the Arts Festival. Main street was so cool, if you haven't been up there in a while they have done a lot of renovations, etc. It's cool up there!
