If you didn't do the "Buffalo Chip Throwing Contest", perhaps you can go to Antelope Island and do your own.

If you grew up in Juab County, Utah during the 1950's, there was plenty of fun things for kids to do without breaking Ken Nyman's First Security Bank. Kick the can was always the go to game and didn't cause much damage other than the time one of us put a dent in the candy truck belonging to Dee Sparks(sorry Scott...it was me). We could ride a horse up to Bailey's Barn and if you didn't owe a horse you could always borrow Ole Starr from Joe Garrett, as all horses need to be rode(unless you are the first one to drive it after a long winter); or you could hike up to the Glory Holes(the old plaster mines) but it was scary as you could get confronted by bats, ghosts of the past and  goblins. After playing cowboys and Indians in the old hollow, you can then meet up at the water weir on a sultry Saturday afternoon. That secret location was off Track Street, just south of Hall's Orchard, or where the present day One Man Band is located. Both boys and girls slid down that concrete bottom filled with the Salt Creek. Our parents never did understand why our Levi cut-offs were so wore out on the butt side. We couldn't advertise it, as it was dangerous, especially when you hit the deep end of the slide. We didn't want to be caught by Nephi Chief Jack Brough, as he had a scary way of making threats. He and Officer Howard Brown would often say "If I ever catch you doing something that stupid again, I am going to tell your Dad". That seemed to work for the Jones boys, simply because we respected our father too much and those cops knew that. So in today's world, what can a family do without carrying a electronic device or spending a zillion for toys. Well, I have a suggestion that may be fun for the whole family that most have never done. We organized a "Buffalo Chip Throwing Contest" a few years ago, when I was a volunteer at Antelope State Island. I did it every Sunday for ten years, and it was a good way to keep me out of church. Participant's seemed to enjoy it, and there should be one photo of that going on. The 500 buffalo didn't seem to mind us picking up their perfectly formed(and thoroughly dried) tossing devices. If you make it to the Ranch House, you can figure out which room Brigham Young slept in, and as a hint, that room contains items made in Juab County a hundred years ago, including pioneer clothing. Sixteen years ago, we accidently discovered some artifacts dating back to 700 A.D. and with the help of hundreds of high school kids doing an archaeological dig, we found the remnants of the Fremont Indians, who appeared to have used the Island as a place to hunt, rather than live, kind of like how we camp and hunt off the Nebo Loop. While there, you may be able to understand why that island is a dream come true for a Geologist, as it has the world's oldest and yet the youngest of rocks. You will have to figure out which is the Tintic Quartzite and the meaning of Metamorphism, and have your kids see if they can count to 2.8 billion, which is the age of some of them.  You can float on the Great Salt Lake, but don't think about why the beach sand(oolictic) is so soft, but it has something to do with the "Sea Monkeys" living in the saline waters. There should  be a photo of a deer raised by humans, which we called "Whisper" and the  big buck I am holding was killed by another younger buck over the affection of Whisper during the rut.
