Anniversary Jan 21-24, 2013

We stayed at our favorite spot in Island Park, the cabin at Robins Roost.  We logged about 207 miles on the sleds.  This ahs been the best rip ever.

 We had a movie every night and ate well.  The first late afternoon we ate at St. Anthony at Big Jakes so we were not too hungry that evening.
 I sure enjoy my private time with mom even through the texting was endless. The second night we decided to drive to West Y and eat at Gushers.  A lot of fun but forgot the camera.
 The snow up on two top was stuck to the trees.  It was absolutely beautiful!  We stopped the first day and ate lunch at the Meadow Creek Lodge.  It was good food but slow due to being out in the back country a little and the place was packed.
 It almost look like the trees were flocked.  The weather was cold both days and the sun was out
 Going to Two Top we were on the Montana side, it was a good day. Not much snow as in past years, it was puckering to go off out in the woods due to the no base and lots of powder.  With only two feet of snow you could see where people had hit rocks and stumps or even had  picked up roots.









 Note the Tetons in the back ground.  This was about a mile from Two Top.


 The last night the movies were terrible meaning all were R rated.  Mom wrote daily in here gratitude journal.


 Mom also spent time reading her book club book The Life of Pi.
 We had a lot of great moments.  We helped several people of the coarse of both days pull their buried sleds out.

 Here this pic was up in Black Rock Canyon.  Snow blown trees.
 This was at the Upper Mesa Falls.  A few minutes after helping an older couple get the wifes machine out of the powder.  Mom is sliding down the stairs since you can't walk down them.
 She is waiting for me to get come down now.

 This is the most ice we have ever seen here.  It was pretty cool to look at and it was pretty reverent here.
 A guy offered to take our pic.

 Enough bench was showing that we sat and ate our lunch here.
 Pretty woman!

 Our last supper, steak and shrimp. Followed by story time on the Pi book.
This morning heading out... it was indicated that she did NOT want her pic taken with her hair this way.  Too bad.

When Jordin mentioned this same thing you did... Mom said we celebrate your birthday! :) So it will be a cold day in *^*& before I include any kids on my anniversary date with my wife.... all texting aside. I love my kids, but my wife is my eternal companion.
