Well, after nearly 30 years, it’s almost official! I’m retiring the end of the month! Yeah!!! New chapters are opening in this journey of life. Soon, we’ll be able to come and go as we please. I hope to spend more time at Lake Powell, attend the temple more often, golf more, ride the Harley more, fish more, and love not being tied to a work routine!

We’ve joined the Temple Riders Association. A group of motorcycle riders who also go to, want to or plan to or go to the temple. That said, anyone can ride with us who enjoyes a group of riders who choose to live a Christian set of values; we don’t use alcohol or coffee, we don’t use tobacco products, we don’t break the law, and we usually don’t swear (slip ups happen!). One of the nicest groups of motorcycle riders you’ll ever meet.  On a recent ride we took a few days of vacation and went to Bryce Canyon with the Temple Riders Association (TRA). Had a blast! Rode to the north rim of the Grand Canyon, visited the Cedar City Temple, rode highway 12 a scenic byway and highway 14 which is even prettier than highway 12, visited Escalante and some friends rode the Hogsback with drop offs on both sides of a narrow winding road (http://boulderutah.com/highway-12-boulder-utah/the-hogsback-boulder-utah-highway-12/), and still managed to come home! Great extended weekend! Thanks to everyone who made it possible! 125 people attended this event so “everyone who made it possible” was a good sized group who put in a lot of work!
