There's Gold in Them There Hills!

Quakie leaves scattered on the ground look like beautiful gold coins.
Chuck and I got up early Saturday morning to travel North on I15 about 62 miles to see some back country.

We enjoyed breakfast breakfast at the Parowan Cafe (it's like stepping back in time) with Don and Teresa, Steve and Susan, Venna and Ken, Newell and Kristina and Jacob and Ellie. They were fun riding buddies. We took an all day trip from Parowan, over the mountain to Panguitch Lake, down through Paragoona and back to Parowan.

I pushed the cancel box at the wrong time and lost the rest of this post.
It's long enough anyway. I did it twice so I'm going to bed before I have to completely start over.

Road Trip

Thursday Chuck and I headed for his Lund hideout.
We took a futon and hung drapes.

Next work project will be counter tops and sink and stove.

After watering trees and chasing off a coyote,
we took the dirt road to Cedar then up Highway 14 to the cabin

This is a sampling of how the leaves are putting on a show right now over Cedar Mountain.

This is where the deer and antelope roam in herds. Antelope were in Lund too, but they were one by one.

When we woke up this morning we named about 3 things we could do. We chose going to Panguitch and we were glad we did.
Susan's flowerbed in Panguitch--flowers love it there

We went to see Garret's new house and took a good pix of his old truck.

2 week old Lainey Sue and her Granny. She's being blessed this Sunday.

I could get used to this .GOV stuff .
Another set of fine days.

Hope you have some too! XOXO

Dice VS Valium

When life gets hectic and stress mounts up, it's good to let your hair down and shake it up with friends. BUNKO at Chani's tonight was a good time. She had Cafe Rio type salads ready for us.
It was a lucky night for me. I brought the Bunko prize home.

Meridy won this cute magnetic board for Most Wins

Zach's Rook Hand

We have a Rook challenge at our house. Chuck and I used to be able to get a higher score than the kids. Now we've mentored 6 other couples that like to whomp us!
The green 13 might look like it weakens his hand, but Shella had the green 14.

Slowpoke

Remember the Arthur Godfrey rendition of the song Slowpoke? Remember Arthur Godfrey?
I do---and that really dates me.
I've been a real slowpoke finishing my cowpoke post.
Scanning the digital library of our July RV UT.NV.GOV. trip has been fun today. Photos set such good memories into our minds.

We used our passports

2 of the 6 RV's we followed--rolling along--
the Eagle trailer was just a wanna be.

We made it to Calgary! Stayed in an RV park and rode the shuttle to town.
