Get-a-way week-end


Tomorrow will be Wynn and I's 36th wedding anniversary.
I can't believe it has been that long.
A lot has happened to us in that time frame.
We are empty nesters and feel blessed that we still
"like" each other.

This year Wynn planned our anniversary celebration.
I loved it because he planned it and I had to do NOTHING!

We left right when I got off work on Friday.
We grabbed some lunch then headed out for
Stanley, Idaho.
Yup, that's where we went.
Up in the Sawtooth Mountain Range.
Wynn loves it there and I enjoyed hearing all the stories he had to tell.
Most of them involved our boys and scout outings.

We checked into our little cabin and then we 
went to dinner.  Not too many choices but
a co-worker of Wynn's told him about a restaurant
where the food was really good.
WE checked it out and it was delicious!
I had trout and Wynn had a steak.

After dinner we went on a little drive to 
Redfish Lake.
It was simply beautiful!
We loved reminiscing about camping there
when our kids were young and also when we were
with Wynn's whole family on a huge camping trip.
So many memories.

Saturday morning, we got up and drove to Sunbeam
Hot Springs.  We thought about taking a dip but
it was like 10:00 in the morning and it was still
about 35 degrees with a little breeze.
Just a little too chilly for me.

We then went up the dredge road.
We checked out some grave yards and just
basically enjoyed our time together.

We then headed for Sun Valley over the Galena Pass 
where the Snake River begins.
It was totally beautiful.

We had a picnic of fried chicken from
Albertson's  in Sun Valley and then 
headed for home.

Such a fun week-end get-a-way.
The best part -
Wynn planned it all!

Here's to another 36 years!
