I work at Mama Layne's Bakery and I really appreciate your kind words. We love hearing reviews like yours. It isn't often we get feedback, besides our baked goods flying off the shelfs haha. We hope you stop by again next time you travel through.

[@AdventuresofAplusK]

So happy you saw this! ❤️❤️ We really enjoyed it and wish we could’ve tried more!

Tubing is instant fun. We really enjoyed watching you two and Kona in the snow. Thanks for sharing your joy.

We’ve really enjoyed this series. Your videography, drone shots and storytelling is outstanding! What fun tubing and the cinnamon roll wow! Great video guys! ~Cara 😊

[@AdventuresofAplusK]

Thank you so much! We really appreciate it!

[@jedsudweeks6676]

Awesome video!! You looked like you had a great time discovering Parowan. First, YES, you pronounced Parowan correctly. (PEAR-uh-win). Anytime you're back in the area, please stop by and see us again. I am honored that my mural made it into the video 0:23 and the thumbnail ! There are many hidden "gems" that most folks never see here in this part of the country, simply because they just don't pull off of the interstate long enough to enjoy the experience. We are so happy that you took the time to slow down and took a moment to get to know us. Thank you !! Next time, the cinnamon rolls are on me.

[@jedsudweeks6676]

P.S. Joely won!

[@AdventuresofAplusK]

Oh wow, that’s your mural?! We LOVE it! We are big fans of that style of mural and always have to snap a pic whenever we see one like that in different towns and cities. How cool! And we’re so glad we said the name right. 🙌🏼 We are very thankful we slowed down and discovered Parowan, it was such a neat area with really cool history, plus you can never go wrong with cinnamon rolls!

Adam be like: OOOOOOH HO HO HO great video :)

[@AdventuresofAplusK]

Hahahah he is basically Santa Adam! 🎅

[@jymnmeier3527]

Another wonderful video :) Sad you weren't able to get the desired treats you were aiming for but impressed how you were able to "Roll" with it LOL. I love seeing small towns in your videos and in general. I often try to imagine if my family and I would/could live there. As a native Californian I feel it is appropriate to say that your snow adventure was "Tubular" LOL. I was modestly surprised to learn you both weren't snow bunnies. After seeing many of your awesome outdoor excursions I just assumed it was in your wheelhouse. Definitely take lesson if you go that route again. My little family did a tubing adventure at Mount Hood (1 1/2 hours from our home) so much fun. After your recent sand sledding adventure and the explanation that snow sports isn't your thing....I was so excited to see the smiles and more importantly hear the...........SANTA LAUGH from Adam

[@AdventuresofAplusK]

Hahahaha the puns in this comment are top notch! We definitely can see ourselves enjoying snow sports more, but we will 100% be taking lessons (unlike last time lol). So happy Santa Adam made another appearance in our vlogs, it is my favorite haha!

[@lorenaperrodin8210]

Love your channel . You have given so much useful information for a Utah trip I am planning. Just a word on the tubing… you must go to Fraser Colorado for tubing. Fraser is next to Winterpark Colorado which is an amazing ski resort. The tubing hill is less restrictive and great fun. You can create chains, speed is not a problem.

[@AdventuresofAplusK]

We would love to go there! Sounds like a blast!

[@OutdoorMS]

That's true, experiancing showtubing is one of the best. When we did it 2yrs ago in Snoqualmie, omg it was so much fun. Thanks for reminding me. This is the first time we see so many native american art in one place. I never heard about parown gap petroglyphs, next time we'll try to catch it.

[@AdventuresofAplusK]

Ooo we will have to try it back in WA too! Not sure why we never did when we lived there!

[@SchoandJo]

Kona was ADORABLE in the snow! Jenn called the “pillowy” cinnamon roll description from Adam 😂👏 Also, 110% need to go snow tubing sometime… looking forward to hearing the skiing story 😁

Hahahaha Adam and his pillowy! 😂😂 We will tell y’all the story this week! It was an experience 😬😂

[@Carolann_237]

Awwww, your puppy loved the snow so much. Now you have to go back to try some more winter sports. Snowshoeing and cross country skiing is a good next step! Are you guy going to Capital Reef NP? You will have to get a cinnamon roll from the Gifford Homestead and compare. And they also have really good pie. But get there right when they open up, because they sell out fast. Safe travels :)

[@AdventuresofAplusK]

She loves the snow! It's so funny! We have snowshoed before and love that as well, but we have yet to try cross country skiing! And we did make it to Capitol Reef already, but didn't make it in time for the cinnamon rolls since we did a hike in the AM, although the pie was AWESOME!

I took lessons in high school and was so embarrassed in my class when I came down the bunny hill, the last in my class, and I wasn't going to be able to stop, so I ended up using the last person in the line up with my class to "bump" into and the whole class went down like dominoes......except me : ( I'm sure your class will be better ; )

So let's see...are we talking about that awesome drive on Hwy 128 following the Colorado River through A beautiful canyon? Are we talking about Arches, Canyonlands, Dead Horse Point?

He winters in CO and has been teaching at Keystone for over 10 years. I am sure no matter where you go you will have a blast.

[@WhenAdventureKnox]

Oh you guys must give skiing another try. I love it, but am usually limited to either a dry ski slope or an indoor snowdome, unless we make a proper holiday out of it in continental Europe. My parents got me into it when I was 6 when they took us to Bulgaria over Christmas... though a few years later in Andorra, I lost control right at the bottom of the slope which had turned into a sheet of ice and skied right into the back of an RV in a car park. 🤦‍♀️🤣 Very curious to know whether your story could top this. 🤷‍♀️ I also broke my thumb skiing once, and that was on the most gentle dry ski slope going!! But don't let my stories put you off, it's amazing!!! The tubing looked like a lot of fun. They had their system well set up, clear repercussions if you go too fast... something tells me they were teacher's in a former life! 🤦‍♀️🤣 Loved the clip at the end of the flute playing. Difficult to weave it into the story that you were telling, but moments like that should definitely be shared, so good to pop it onto the end ❤️

[@AdventuresofAplusK]

Hahahah oh no!!! That may top ours! Shockingly nothing got hurt in our story, except our pride! We plan to ski next winter and will document it and hopefully it'll go smoother. We also really want to visit Andorra, it looks gorgeous! And I am glad you enjoyed the flute! It happened days after filming, so it was kind of a random clip, but didn't want to leave it out!
