A FEW DAYS OF HEAVEN

The last part of our trip we left Utah and drove north to Idaho.

I wish I were a photographer and had a better camera because this view was spectacular. The Tetons (in the background) are really made of three peaks. They are rugged looking but beautiful. We couldn't stop watching them as we drove up to Targhee Ski Resort which is in Wyoming just over the Idaho boarder.

Tom has a tradition of meeting his brothers (at least four of the six make it) in Targhee over the Martin Luther King weekend. This year I was finally able to go. Yes I skied. It was quite embarrassing and Tom was very relieved when I insisted that he go and ski the "big" runs while I tried to master the "bunny" runs.

One of Tom's brothers (Joe) was recovering from a serious broken leg, so one day he and his wife Bobby were kind enough to ski with me.

hanging out by the lodge.

Tom and Jim joined us (Jim's daughter Jamie is behind

Jim's ski) for a quick lunch break...

At the end of each day, the 'boys' had to relax in the 

outside hot tub. It was quite comical seeing how

they dressed. Look at those sexy legs!

On Sunday, Tom and I took a break from skiing and drove into Rexburg where BYU-Idaho is. We went to church with Emily and Jeff. Emily lived with us last summer in New York while she was working on an internship in Interior Design. She and Jeff were "just friends" at the time. Yes, Tom and I thought there was more, but Emily was a bit clueless. It was great to see them again and to see them as a 'real couple.'

 

After church they took us up to the Rexburg Temple

that is just on the edge of campus. It is a gorgeous temple

and looks beautiful sitting on the hill.

Well that's the end of our trip. It was lots of fun playing and relaxing with family and friends. Now back to reality...
