30 wonderful years, two fantastic kids and alot of work later, we've decided it's time to take an extended break and travel. There will be three phases to the time off - skiing in the Rockies, Europe by campervan and downtime on the farm. This blog is intended to keep family and friends informed as to our whereabouts in case they want to travel vicariously with us. Hasta la vista!

So we have made it to Utah, and this is what they serve for the Mormon crowd. Did you know that 70% of the population here are Mormon, but the church denounced polygamy 100 years ago? An amazing drive through Snake river valley, volcanic magma, sagebrush, big mountain backdrops and into the Ogden Valley, home of Powder Mtn (like a taller Whitewater) and Snowbasin (2002 Olympic downhill site, owned by the Sun Valley guy). Hasn't snowed since the weekend and well above freezing in the day, so we'll see what the skiing is like tomorrow. Nice B&B and fun dinner of ribs and brisket. (Is anybody reading this stuff????)
