273 Miles

Last night my dad and his friends stopped at our house on their way to Sturgis, SD. My dad and Knuckle Bob spent the night at our house and Red Rider got a hotel after dinner.
We had a really nice night and than woke early and waited and waited for Red Rider and could not get a hold of him. So we decided that we were going to leave him.
We took the kids over to Rachels and than Bob checked his phone one more time and finally RR had called. So we said good by to the boys and meet RR at the hotel.
I rode on my dads bike from West Valley, UT to Evanston, WY, about 100 miles. It was a great ride and I had a blast.
Than we said good bye to my Dad, RR and KB. They continued on their way to Sturgis which them should arrive at tomorrow.
I got on Jeremys bike and we headed along the Mirror Lake Highway. It was a beautiful road with the most amazing scenery.
We got a little turned about at the end of Mirror Lake HW and ended up going the LONG way home.
At the end of the day we put 273 miles on the bike and had a blast. It was so wonderful to spend the day without the children. And for most of the day it was just Jeremy and I.
The only negative was right before we stopped for lunch in Heber, UT we were at a stop light and all of a sudden a bug started biting my arm. I started shaking my arm trying to get it out and than it finally came out. I am not sure what kind of bug it was. It was some kind of flying red looking thing and the bite hurt really really bad for a while. I am not even sure how it got in my shirt cause I did not feel it fly into my shirt.
Over all we had a great day and I am so glad we got to ride east with my dad for a while. Maybe we will ride with them all the way to Sturgis with them one of these times.

I had no idea that we were going to be this high. We saw a little bit of snow pretty close to the summit

The end miles

Most of the pictures were taken from the back of the motorcycle going 65 MPH. I think they turned out pretty good for moving pictures.
