I decided to try out a Boy Scout activity where you would flip a coin or so at each intersection and depending on what it landed on, you'd turn a certain direction. I thought I'd just keep walking and see where I ended up.

 

I used two coins; on heads I'd turn right, tails I'd turn left, and inconclusive I'd go forward.

The coins took me around Orem and nowhere else. I looped around a few neighbourhoods and saw 15 different LDS chapels.
I walked a total of a little over 10 hours, giving me approximately 18.5 miles.

During my walk, I stumbled upon an old heritage house of Lindon; the Alfred Harper House.

 

Alfred Harper House

 

It was built in 1876 by an LDS member and was well known for a well, with a bucket and dipper. Passers-by were all welcomed to drink from the well and in 1987, it was listed on the National Register of Historical Places.

I reached back home legs aching and barely moving.

I thought this tunnel view also looked nice; it was the Lindon Heritage Trail.
