Skyline Drive - Brenchley's Cabin

Four of our couples, (Brenchleys, Englands, Phillips, Larsens),  were able to clear our calendars for a couple of days and had a great get-away, especially because of the hospitality of the Brenchleys.  Their cabin is nestled among aspen and wildflowers above Fairview and is the perfect setting to relax, socialize with good friends and set off for some fun rides.  Oh and in the evening we were introduced to what we think will be Richard's favorite card game, Pond Scum....(don't ask!)

 The Brenchley Compound

 Fantastic scenery, far removed from the every day hustle

 The gang.....seasoned riders

 Mossy Lake

 Wide open spaces, beautiful sky and great friends, thanks for the ride and hospitality Brenchleys

Sometimes we felt like this sheep hot, tired, and lost  However, we had capable trail guides who kept their cool and found us shade and lead us back to the comforts of home in the thick of the forrest.

Diana says, "The last picture is Fred's hand after stopping at the car wash to clean the rzr.  He was climbing off the trailer with the wand in one hand and accidentally aimed it at his other hand for 1 second.  Needless to say we spent the next few hours in the hospital.  He just missed severing his tendon.  Very lucky!"  (We are so glad he didn't sever his tendon, and hope he mends quickly.  And, he'll have to steer with one hand for awhile, or Diana will have to take over the driving!!)

Panguitch Lake

A few of us had a fun get-away, and avoided the heat wave for a few days at Panguitch Lake.  The rides were great, the scenery was beautiful and the company, as always, was wonderful!!  We wish more of you could have been with us but we know summer is a busy time with vacations and family obligations.  Clair & Ilene were planning on joining us, but at the last minute made some silly excuse about having something more important to do......seriously, we missed them but are so thankful Clair has bounced back and is doing great!!

So I have a 'confession' and a story about the above photo.  Cheryl and I took a walk along the lake after sunset on the first night we were there and the sky looked beautiful, just like this photo, and the reflection on the lake was also beautiful.  Of course neither one of us had our phones or cameras.  The next night we took a walk at the same time, and Cheryl had her phone and I took my camera, and the sky and lake looked exactly like Cheryl's photo above.  My photo had the same colors as Cheryl's but I decided to make my photo look the way this scene looked the night before....with the magic of photo editing software!!
