๐ฝ America 250 Corn Maze Coming to Cross E Ranch
The Quick Summary: Cross E Ranch has revealed the design for this year's corn maze, celebrating America's 250th birthday. While the corn is still growing, the maze has already been planted in its patriotic design, and the ranch says this fall's season is shaping up to be "epic." Reservations are also open now for corporate events, family reunions, birthday parties, field trips, and VIP animal experiences.
It's a fun local fall tradition, and popular group events book quicklyโso early planning can help you lock in your preferred dates. ๐ Learn More

๐ Paddle Boarding Utah's Pink Waters: A Great Salt Lake Adventure
The Quick Summary: Looking for a uniquely Utah summer adventure? A local writer shares firsthand tips for paddle boarding the pink waters near Spiral Jetty, from packing plenty of fresh water and sun protection to preparing for strong winds, salty conditions, and the required aquatic invasive species paperwork. The reward is a one-of-a-kind view of one of Utah's most iconic landscapes.
Why It Matters: The Great Salt Lake is right in South Davis County's backyard, and with a little preparation, it's a memorable day trip for outdoor enthusiasts looking to experience one of Utah's most unique natural wonders. ๐ Read More
๐ Layton Classic Car Restoration Dispute Raises Consumer Concerns
A Millcreek woman says her late husband's 1938 Pontiac sat at a Layton restoration shop for nearly six years after they paid more than $16,000 for an engine swap. KSL reports the unfinished car was recently towed home, and the Utah Division of Consumer Protection has previously fined the shop $27,500 over complaints involving undelivered services and ordered it to stop violating the Utah Consumer Sales Practices Act.
It's a reminder for anyone hiring contractors or specialty repair shops to get timelines, costs, and expectations in writingโand to keep regular documentation throughout the project. ๐ Read More

This week's spotlight goes to one seriously lovable goofballโGarmr!
If you've ever wondered what Scooby-Doo would look like in real life, Garmr might just convince you. With his goofy personality, derpy expressions, and lovable charm, he has a way of making everyone smile.
When he's not playing with his cat siblings, you'll find him enjoying a cozy nap, romping through the snow, or happily soaking up all the attention he can get. He loves peopleโand if you're within licking distance, consider yourself warned!
His favorite treat? Carrots! ๐ฅ (Or, as his family lovingly calls them, "sugar nuggets.") It's safe to say this sweet boy is always ready for a healthy snack.
Thank you for bringing so much laughter, love, and slobbery kisses to everyone around you, Garmr! We're so happy you're part of the Scenthound family.
๐พ Stay tuned next week as we introduce another wonderful local pup in our Bountiful Pup of the Week series!
