Finally, got out of Green River...I have sand everywhere AND, now Tommy smells like a campfire...Yup.  Left the van door open while toasting my tootsies.  So, home smells like campfire, my latest stir fry, and Roxi...I'm a walking smorgasboard of aromas.  He'll be needing a bath by the time I get him home again.  Poor little guy.  He's such a trooper. 

Goblin Valley...WHAT A TREAT!  You feel like you're walking on Mars, or trippin' on acid through a Salvador Dali Painting.  It is so FREAKIN' cool!   I'll only spend the one night here for now, cause a snow storm and cold front are moving in for a few days, so I'm moving out to Hanksville to wrap myself in the glorious warmth electricity provides.  But, I'll be back to surf through "Little Wild Horse Canyon".  A very cool little foray, I'm totally looking forward to. 
 
Oh, as a point of interest...the gray, green sand is ancient sea bed, and the ochre sandstone are the ancient tidal pools...way too cool.
