Anniversary

One of my very best friends growing up (Kim Wallin Palmer) moved to Enterprise last year.  I have had so much fun having her around.  She recently celebrated her 14th wedding anniversary, and invited Royd and me to help celebrate.  Royd was the travel agent and set us up on a great get away weekend.
We started out staying at a cute little retreat called the Homestead Resort near Park City.  When we got there the boys got right to golfing, and sent us girls shopping at the outlet mall.  Royd gave us directions to the mall, but somewhere we made a wrong turn.  We ended up on steep switchback up a mountain, in the rain and fog.  We were so lost but we kept going.  We drove up to the top of the mountain before we finally came down into old town Park City.  It took us over an hour to make the what was supposed to be 20 minute trip.  After shopping we met the boys for dinner.
The next day we traveled up Ogden Canyon to the Alaskan Inn.  It was so nice.  We each had our own little cabin.  We went to dinner at a very interesting restaurant, the Timbermine.  The food was super delicious! The atmosphere was incredibly strange.  The waiting area was full of all sorts of trinkets, some antique, some junk.  They had about 6 old bath tubs with Plexiglas lids.  When you looked inside it was filled with Christmas lights and old Pez dispensers.  One had Christmas lights and key chains.  When we were seated we were taken down a very dark hallway to a booth.  The booth had a light with a dimmer that we could adjust.  Everything else was pitch black.  It seemed like we were the only people there.  The waitress popped up out of nowhere occasionally.  It was a lot of fun, and a little creepy.
The final day we spent at Lagoon.  The boys got a little sick on the rides so Kim and I spent a lot of time together spinning around.  I enjoyed myself.  It was a little strange being at an amusement park with out the kids.  I was really happy to get home and hug and kiss my kiddos.
