A Sundance Getaway

Kristian and I returned today from an beautiful getaway to Sundance in honor of our 4th year anniversary. We arrived around 4pm yesterday afternoon and checked into our rustic cabin that was nestled in the woods overlooking the ski runs. The maple trees were brilliant red highlighted by the aspen's yellow hue. We made a fire, cracked open a beer and glass of delicious red wine and unwound on the couch. Kristian began to read a surfing book and I read Eat, Pray, Love. We sat in silence for a while, consumed in our author's expression of surf and travel. Then, we began to have such an engaging conversation that we talked right passed our dinner reservation. When we realized what time it was, we called ahead and left our abode for The Tree Room (which literally has a tree growing right in the center of the restaurant). Dinner was exceptional (although the $14 scallop appetizer was quite comical, considering we received only 2 - but worth every penny). We dined, drank and dove into rich discussion, reflecting on where we had been, and envisioning where we wanted to go. We celebrated with a bubbly chocolate soufle, a latte and coffee. How blessed I feel to have such a stable, grounded and loving relationship. I was filled to the rim, not only with yummy food, but so much love for and from my husband. We headed back to our cabin and were asleep before 10pm ( the joys of having a parentless evening to yourself).

Breakfast at the Foundry Grill was on par with the evening before (except the breakfast was included with the room charge). We sat next to the cozy fire and had the best homeade sausage I think I have ever had. We then walked around the premises and drove up the mountain pass to get home. Here are some pictures from the day. Enjoy.
