Logan bound

This morning we are leaving for Logan Utah for Karen's Mother's Day hike with Krista and her family. Last year we had a great hike up in the Logan Canyon and this year we are heading back up there again. Krista wanted me to choose the destination since I spent a week riding my bike up there last year while she and her mother were in Alaska. My choice was out toward Old Ephraim's Grave which is the grave of a huge grizzly bear that was killed there back in the early part of the 1900's. This bear was the largest ever recorded and the head is somewhere in the Smithsonian in Washington DC. I tried to find it last year when we were there but I never could. Here is the plaque that commemorates the spot where he was killed. Kind of sad in a way but the inevitable result of the interaction between people and wild things.

Boxes!

Funny thing about moving is how you need to find boxes. I'm sure it's going to take a lot of boxes to get all of Karen's stuff moved to Greenville but all of my stuff, or most of it anyway, is already in totes from my last move. All I need to do is repack my clothes. Good thing I gave all my stuff away before I moved here, huh? There are so many things to do ahead that it's hard to know where to start. Bits and pieces, that's the best way to tackle a big job so that's what we will have to do.

On another note we have been shopping for rings which is the first time in my life I have done that. I bought a wedding ring for Linda years ago but I don't remember putting a lot of shopping effort into it. But then, what can I remember from that many years ago...
