The vine does have small leaves on it. It grabs everything it touches. But the white flowered bush that was suggested as dogwood may be something else. As I understand it, dogwood has four petals. These have 5. I'll keep doing research on it. Thanks for the info! :)

The vine is a Virginia Creeper if there are pads on the tendrils. That means if the windy things that grab the fence or wall etc has pads it is a Virginia Creeper. If no pads on the tendrils then its a Thicket Creeper, also called a False Virginia Creeper or Woodbine or Grape Woodbine,

I am pretty sure it is a dogwood. I just saw one in Utah yesterday. There is some other vine growing up in the dogwood.
