Hello old friend!

Dusted off the GS for my work commute. It sure has been a while. It sure feels good being back in the saddle again. :-)

Road trip planning

So, I've already changed one minor detail. We won't be staying in Caineville. It's closer to home but there are no restaurants in this little town. So, we will drive to the other side of the park and stay in Torrey, UT at Austin's Chuckwagon Motel. Oh yeah! We are going all out on this adventure! They have smaller rooms with a queen bed for $55 a night with air conditioning and private bathrooms. Torrey seems to have many restaurant options as well. On our anniversary we like to be able to talk to dinner and not have to gear up and ride anywhere. All we really need for these trips is air conditioning, burgers, beer and an occasional steak. We should be good to go in Torrey I think.

Here are some links about the town and area.

Next up, I need to hit up the library for some books with hiking trails and scenic drives. :-)
