Even aside from the park, Torrey was an unexpected gem. We were truly our in the middle of nowhere, and it was amazing!
All I needed was a little internet access and cell service, and the rest of the week was work heaven for me, with desert views just beyond my computer screen.
Just down the street from our house, there was an awesome little trail on Forest Service land, and we took full advantage of it in the evenings after work!
When I was enjoying the views from my home office, Rachel and Nathan went for not one but TWO trail rides.
We took beautiful walks at sunrise in the morning and at sunset.
We even had a campfire one evening!
The one downside was that this town (which is a pretty grandiose term for Torrey) truly does roll up the carpet at about 6 pm - at least during the shoulder season. We celebrated Rachel's birthday here on October 28 (happy birthday, Rae!), and all she wanted to was a take-out meal from a local restaurant. Sadly, that wasn't in the card, and, short of real food, we ate s'mores for dinner instead.
When Friday came, we were sad to leave, but it was time to head east. Ever eastward!
