8-16-19 - (Day 23- Catching up with Good Friends)

We met Kelly at Yaki's in Hot Sulpher Springs this morning.  We haven't seen her seen she left the refuge last fall, but we have kept up with her on Facebook.  We had a great visit for a couple of hours while enjoying our breakfast and coffee.

We were in the truck so we rode through Gilbert's Campground and confirmed that not taking Rap into the campground was a great decision.

We rode through the west side Williams Fork Camping area.  We could have camped there, but it is so much easier where we are for riding Amber.  On our way in, we saw proghorns, geese, ducks, ibis and a red tailed hawk.

We decided to take Amber for a spin to Granby.  It started to rain, so we made a surprise visit to see Pam and Chuck.  We were only going to stay for a few minutes to avoid the rain, 2 1/2 hours later we got back on the road.  Time sure flies when you're having fun.

The winds were ferocious on our 15 mile ride back with only a few sprinkles.

We arrived back at camp with white caps on the lake.  We hooked the door to keep it open while we got our stuff  unloaded from Amber.  As I was telling Lauren, it will take both of us to close the door because the wind is so strong, the wind gusted so hard, that it tore the door hook off and slammed the door, sending Ferny Kat into hiding.
