Our cabin, "Sparrow's Nest"is on the Soldier Creek side of Strawberry Reservoir which is about 45 minutes east of Heber City. It sits high above the lake at an elevation of 8100 feet. We love this place; our views are fabulous and we love coming here to decompress and relieve stress. We have incredible sunsets, but
last night we experienced the most amazing sunset we've ever seen in up at our cabin. Truly spectacular.
One of the reasons we're happy to be home is to reconnect with our Salt Lake City friends.
Early last week we had breakfast at Carl's Cafe to see our good friend Lisa and give her a hug. Lisa's the owner and cook at the Cafe. If you haven't been there, you need to make a point to go! I can't believe we didn't take a photo! But I'm re-sharing the photo from our send off - Lisa is standing in front of me and here's a picture of her Cafe. (Carl's Cafe, Cottonwood Heights on Fort Union)
Then, last weekend Randy cruised out to the Lander Beer Festival, in Wyoming, with Richard and Blake. Yes, he went on a weekend road trip the week we came home. He'd actually been planning this since June 2013 and the weekend just happened to coincide with our return home. I really loved our trip, but I needed to just stay off the bike for a little while. (I'm ready to go somewhere now.) The boys had a great time but they were missing Ed who was out on his own Harley adventure.
On Tuesday night, June 17, our friends Ed and Stephanie came home from a 12-day motorcycle trip that took them through Idaho, Oregon, Washington, California and Nevada. On their way home, it's tradition to stop at the Bohemian Brewery and we decided to meet them and welcome them home. All day they had been avoiding a major rain and snowstorm, and they were frozen when they arrived! The look a little like "aliens"don't they? Especially Ed!
We ran into Lisa at the Brewery and it was fun to see her again and enjoy more hugs. Also joining us at the Bohemian was Richard and Patty.
I'm so glad I went, as I hadn't seen Ed, Stephanie or Patty since we left on our trip and we had a blast, laughing, catching up and sharing stories. Even though it was a short evening, it was so good to see them. These women are fabulous!
We missed seeing Jayme and Blake at the Bohemian, but luckily we'd already had a chance to see them earlier.
We have lots more Utah friends to catch up with and I'm excited to see all of them!
I've learned a lot of things on this crazy adventure of ours, but the one thing I've realized, is that we are lucky to have great friends all over the country and even luckier to have many wonderful friends right here at home.
