Today was the third and final paid holiday for The Husband. I've tried to keep him from working - tried to make sure he relaxed and enjoyed his time away from work even though we didn't manage the getaway. He's read a fairly lengthy book, we've been on a walk and an 11 mile bike ride, eaten out a few times and even had a treat or two.
This afternoon we took a drive up Little Cottonwood Canyon to the very end and walked up through Albion Basin to enjoy the flowers and lovely day. The temps were in the 60's with a slight breeze. We took some less-traveled trails, saw some Clark's Nutcrackers (they're birds-we haven't seen them before), lots of hummingbirds, and quite a few pretty recent moose tracks. The other wildlife was the human variety - quite large numbers of them. I think this little side-trip did wonders for the spirits of The Husband, although they haven't really been flagging.
Two more days of togethernesswithoutwork. What fun.
