We left town around 9 am and started immediately with a climb through a rocky canyon. I always imagine mountain lions lurking behind rocks...
While climbing I tried not to push too hard on the kiddy pedal... It seemed to work: no weird cracking noises anymore.
After reaching the top, we flew through the town of Fountain Green. On our way to Moroni our eyes caught something strange: what kind of animals are those? We still don't know if they were shrinked lama's or lambs with a long neck! At least the turkeyfarms were normal! We had a gas station stop with lemonade and nuts before we headed towards Mt. Pleasant... (that big mountain we have to climb, Sofie!). Sundays in Utah are very quiet - one can really tell the difference from other days in the week. So instead of concentrating on traffic, I tried not to cycle over too many grasshoppers and I also enjoyed the many butterflies along the road. The steady uphill to Mt. Pleasant (yes, indeed, it was uphill) was warm and without any shady places. At the junction with US 89 we turned north to reach the small town of Fairview: there is indeed not too much to see there, but the cafe across Skyline motel has a lot of customers on sundays (it's also the only cafe in town).
