06-11-13

Yesterday we were kind of beat up after Sunday’s ride.
It was my fault because I didn’t air down the tires on the jeep and the road was pretty rocky. I should know better.

We took a ride through the neighborhoods Manti and were impressed by the very nice houses and how well the yards were kept.

I was wrong about no business district. They do have some businesses in town but they are very subtle. Most of the public buildings look like churches.

We decided to go a couple miles north of Manti to the town of Ephraim. Here the businesses are more up front and visible. We drove through the town and at the north end lo and behold there was a Walmart.
We didn’t have our list with us so we decided to come back later in the afternoon to do our Walmart shopping.

It was about noon so we stopped at a small diner called The Malt Shop. It was a 50’s style diner and was pretty cute. The food was okay.

We went back to Plan “B” and hung out until around 4:00. Then we went back to Ephraim and did our shopping.
For dinner we went to a restaurant in Manti.
I had raviolis and Patti had a chicken dish.
I liked the raviolis but Patti didn’t care for the chicken dish.

We will be leaving here around 7:00.
We are heading north and want to get through Salt Lake City between the morning commute and the lunch hour rush.

We will probably go all the way to Pocatello Idaho.
