September 15, 2014


A very slow stretch at work led to a last-minute 4 day weekend at the cabin.  We left Thursday afternoon, and Amy and Vince joined us Friday evening through Sunday evening.  We returned Monday afternoon.  

It was rainy and cool on Friday as Rick worked on the main floor bathroom, and I did a lot of nothing.  We headed to the Western Bar for dinner Friday night for their delicious green chile cheeseburgers, onion rings, moose drools, and coconut cream pie!  

It was cool but dry on Saturday, so we had an early lunch at the pizza place, went to the apple orchard, and did a little shopping while we waited for temps to warm up.  We did a challenging 18 mile ride from the cabin and explored some new trails.  We had green chile stew for dinner at the cabin.    

We did another fun but difficult 20 mile ride on Sunday with some light sprinkles and mist at times but good, cool weather overall.

Rick scouting out an unmapped (and very steep) road going down the side of the new ridge.  The view is toward the southeast, and the ridges in the distance are where our cabin and subdivision are located.
Nice view from the top of the ridge looking south.
