Wedding anniversary

Monday

Sadly, I did not sleep well. With the fridge and the AC cycling on and off and light coming in around the blinds, AND rls, sleep was only intermittent. It was after 8 when we got up. Chris showered and went down to breakfast. I made breakfast in the room and ate it while reading articles and messages. After he got back, I washed up and got dressed. I packed the suitcase and food box, then went back to processing e-mail. I wiped my screen and keyboard.. It accidentally turned on the backlights. I also watched part of the RAMA walkthrough and made notes.

We packed the car and headed out. We went to Fremont Indian State Park. We walked one of the trails and checked out a pit house. Then we went back the way we came, passed the hotel and kept going. We went through Capitol Reef, and all the way to Hanksville.

We checked in at the Whispering Sands motel. We moved our luggage into the room and set up our laptops. I couldn't get over how wrong the room was. The beds should have been against the wall with the bathroom, and the desk and fridge against the far wall. Then one could walk a straight shot to the bathroom in the dark. Also the vanity was outside the bathroom and the sink was behind the door. So if you are standing at the sink, the person coming out of the bathroom will hit you with the door.

Anyway, we read on our laptops. Then I dressed up and we went to Duke's Slickrock Cafe. My burger was good, french fries too. But I didn't trust the ketchup or mayo. He got a pasta meal. We took a selfie coming out of the restaurant.

When we got back, I could not find my nightgown. I called Holiday Inn, but it had not been turned in. I figure it was white and the bedspreads were white, so it didn't show up. Since I made it myself, I was very down about losing it. I took everything out of the suitcase to be sure.

I read Silmarillion for awhile, but the lighting wasn't good. I posted to my blog. Chris sat beside me on the bed and used an external DVD drive to watch the last episode of Criminal Minds of the season. Then we got ready for bed.
