This weekend we FINALLY took some time off for a small vacation. We planned a wheelin' trip with our friends Mike and Hilary. They invited some of their friends to come too. We made the four hour trip to Caineville with mine and Hil's quads and the guys dirt bikes. We stayed in pretty much the only hotel in Caineville. Me, Landon, Mike and Hil all shared a room and the other guys shared one next to us. We left early on Friday morning so we had some time to ride when we got there. We dropped our stuff at the hotel, got our riding gear on and headed for the dirt hills. It took me a while to get used to riding the wheeler, but once I got the hang of it there was no stopping me. LOL We rode until there was not enough sunlight to ride then headed back to the hotel for some grub. The hotel had a grill so we were able to bbq some hot dogs and hamburgers. We were all pretty exhausted from waking up early and riding in the blazing heat so we headed off to bed. We woke up pretty early the next day to get a full day of riding in. We woke up to a little friend hanging outside our doors. There was a baby deer that is apparently known at the hotel as Fresco. He was coming up to us wanting us to pet him. He was acting like he thought he was a dog! lol After all the fun with Fresco we packed up lunch and chairs and headed back out to the hills. We all rode our hearts out! All of that suddenly came to a hault when Landon and I returned from a quick ride around the hills around us. He had noticed that one of the wheels on the 4 wheeler was wobbling. When we looked at it we were surprised that the wheel was even still on at all. The bolts on the rim had shredded almost all the way to nothing. We drove to the only place that may have something for us to fix it and they couldn't do anything for us so sadly I was done riding for the trip. :-( I had Landon drop me off at the hotel so he could head back out with everyone else and get a few more hours of riding in. It wasn't so bad. I got to take a nice long shower, get in a little nap and some time to relax before they all got back. Plus, I had gotten in a good day and a half in of riding so I was happy. Once everyone else got back we headed into town to have dinner at one of the only restaurants in Caineville. After we ate we all headed back to the hotel and just relaxed and went to bed. We woke up the next morning and some of us went out and rode and the rest of us got everything cleaned up to head home. We were sad to have the trip end so quickly, but it was nice to be back home in our own bed. Today Landon and I had the day off together so we went and bought some rims for the wheeler from a guy off KSL so we'll be ready to get back out on the trails. Then we went to see the movie Fighting. It was okay. I probably would wait for it to be out on redbox. We had a really fun weekend. It was relaxing and fun. And it's always nice getting to spend some time together away from our crazy jobs. We're hoping to get back out on some trails soon!
