Our goal was to make it to Bryce Canyon so we headed off... Beauty where ever you look.
We stopped in Kanab for lunch at their city park.
Here is Michelle making lunch. She does a great job coming up with food options on the road.
We got to go thru a couple of these on our way to Bryce Canyon.
It was a beautiful day for a ride. A bit chilly the higher in elevation we went. There was even a bit of snow on the side of the road in places.
Quite a difference in temp from earlier in the day.
Yoska was enjoying himself... Even if it doesn't look so in this picture. :)
The views are amazing.
We ended up finding a hotel for the night. We were going to boondock not far from the park but it wasn't clear where and what we found we would of not been able to get into. So we got a hotel and had a "date night" of dinner of elk and buffalo burgers and relaxed watching MeTV. Also, we were excited to have a nice hot shower all to ourselves. It's the little things. :)
Southern Utah is one of Vanholio's favorite areas, too. PLUS, the convenience stores seem to all have amazingly good cake donuts! ... If you didn't this time, next time you're through, drive from Escalante through Boulder, UT, to Canyonlands NP. One of the most beautiful drives I've ever done!

ReplyDeletePIX with the TRUCKER PARKING CLOSE BY =Looks like the trucker was being nice trying to give you some shade? He may just be interested in your unique setup. I know when I use to park a rig I always turned my ride around where I would not get boxed in I also parked where when I left I would not accidentally hit anything like a bike light pole or some other obstruction that could be damaged by me or damage my rig. Sometimes I would park with the sun to my back so I could return to a cooler truck. Shade keeps heat out of your truck.
