Splashing Through Missouri

February 27, 2021 We are stopping for the night in Saint Peters just outside of Saint Louis. Here are some rather pictures, some better than others! In Missouri, it started raining on us on and off and then constantly for the last 45 minutes of the drive. We’ve made it 840 miles in one day.

Driving Back to Golden, CO from Moab, UT

October 5, 2020 On September 30th (Wednesday), we got up and packed up and loaded the truck up. We both did a quick check around the rented RV to make sure we hadn’t left anything. We managed to get out at 8:00 AM. We drove to I-70 along Hwy 128 and it was very beautiful […]

Scenic Byway – Hwy 128 Outside of Moab

October 3, 2020 On September 29th (Tuesday), after our stop at Lions Park, Bruce and I discussed going into town and getting something to eat for lunch.

Lions Park, Moab UT

October 3, 2020 Along the Colorado River, at the intersection of Hwy 191 and Hwy 128, there is a beautiful park called Lions Park. It has paths along the river, picnic tables shaded by trees, and a foot bridge across the Colorado River. How could we resist walking over the bridge? After we had hiked […]

Driving to Moab, UT From Golden, CO

The Canyonlands by Night and Day Sound and Light Show in Moab

October 2, 2020 The Canyonlands by Night and Day Sound and Light Show sounded like a lot of fun. It promised a cowboy-style Dutch oven dinner and a boat ride at night with lighting along the some of the canyon walls that the Colorado River has carved out. We got there early and picked up […]

The Moab Giants Museum and Dinosaur Park

October 2, 2020 Since we couldn’t get into Arches on September 27th (Sunday), we went to the Moab Giants Museum and Dinosaur Park, just north of Arches. This museum had a 3D “aquarium” that show pre-historic sea creatures. It was amazing and I wish it had a few more exhibits. They also had a small […]
