Where I stayed
Yesterday we had another great drive. When we left the hotel in Moab, we were driving out of town and discovered a bridge over the Colorado River through a canyon that was just beautiful...we had to turn around and stop to see it.
A beautiful sunny day with breathtaking scenery. At times we were in canyon like settings and then we were in a surrounding that made us feel like we could be on the moon (except for the fences) it was so desolate. The trip was mostly on straight roads. We were able to drive until 8:00 PM to Twin Falls, just 3 miles from Snake Canyon where Evil Kenival attempted his jump over the canyon. We are on our way to see the area before heading on the road.
Last night just before reaching the hotel, we had the most beautiful sunset. Unfortunately I was not able to get a photo of it to share with you as the bugs hitting the windshield - it was as if it was raining there were so many. I can only imagine how long it is going to take Steve to wash the truck when we arrive in Vancouver since it has not been washed since leaving Halifax...and those who know him, know he loves to have a clean vehicle...so it must be driving him crazy although he hasn't said much about it.
We miss everyone both in Nova Scotia and those we have seen along our trip. We appreciate the hospitality of each and everyone of you. It has been a wonderful trip so far (except for loosing Cocoa, of course).
Take care and I update you again tomorrow.
