Thomas and I have entered our fourth state on the tour. From Bear Lake, Wyoming we utilized highway 89 to brush upon the south-eastern tip of Idaho before entering Utah enroute to Salt Lake City. Logan Canyon was a very scenic stretch of highway right before Logan city. It was very beautiful even though I am getting jaded from many days on the bicycle. The canyon was imposingly steep and the visible rock looked as though there was potential for lots of climbing. In the last few miles of canyon we hit the edge of a large strorm cell and were buffeted by strong winds before entering a torrential thundershower. It had looked very ominous and long-lasting, but a dinner stop at a restaurant outlasted the bad weather. After talking to some old americans at the bar in the dinner Thomas and I agreed that we had both perceived a change from the laconic style of Montana and Wyoming to an exaggeration upon small talk.
Tomorrow is David Broemeling's birthday, and becasue I know he is reading the blog I have to post:
Happy Birthday!
