Awww Monday! The beginning of our Travel Project! September 6, 2021


On August 23, 2021 we began a 9 day
bicycling odyssey. We did not cycle
500 miles in a three day whirl, but
our friends did and we helped support
them while they went up, down and 
around the high altitude mountains 
and thru the majestic and colorful canyons
 in Southern Utah near the city of St George. 
I will be sharing some photos over this week
and maybe even next week! 
The first day we drove 6 hours and 22 minutes
to Baker City, Oregon where our good friends 
Tom and Sarah live. We originally met them
in St Victor la Coste, France working on a restoration
 project La Sabranenque . We had a great visit
and the next day set out for the 4 hour drive
to Salt Lake City!


Arriving in Salt Lake City, Utah.
There are old mansions interspersed 
between skyscrapers. 
Too big a city for me.

    How fun. What a good way to exercise and what a wonderful way to show your support. That's a long way to go on a bicycle.

    I've flown into and out of Salt Lake City, but never left the airport.

    Thank you for joining the Awww Mondays Blog Hop.

    Have a fabulous Awww Monday and week. Love and hugs all around. ♥♥♥

    Cities are fun to see for a day or two, but we wouldn't like to live in one either.

    I look forward to seeing each and every post.
    While you were away, I had an appendectomy, on 8/25. I am doing very well with my recovery. Proof positive no plans are concrete and all subject to change.

I love comments and will attempt to reply to each one. However, lately I have been getting "Unknown" comments that are linked to some sort of web page. I will never open this sort of comment and will immediately mark as spam. I am not interested in opening something that could be detrimental to my blog security etc. Never have enjoyed hackers! Thanks!
