Lisa and I played hookey from our work today and drove down to the base of American Fork Canyon. Then we rode our tandem over the Alpine Loop to Sundance Ski Resort where we had lunch. The climb up this side is 3,000 feet. Then we went back up to the summit (a 2,000 foot climb) and down American Fork Canyon again with a little side trip up to Tibble Fork Lake. Beautiful ride with the leaves changing and the snow on Mt. Timpanogos. The we drove to our old neighborhood and checked in on a friend who has just beaten breast cancer. Tough battle. Awesome spirit! Then we dropped by to see each of our parents before driving home. What a terrific day! |
