Utah

As usual, plans are flexible like our driving directions.  This time the plan to stay near and swim in the Great Salt Lake were set aside as leaders of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (Mormons) met for their annual international general conference in Salt Lake City.  This time we skirted our planned goal to the east through Evanston, WY and Echo, UT, then south through Provo.  This time our goal was Moab and the Arches held within.

We camped in a motel RV park and watched the sky.  It seemed bigger here.  We could tell we were in the southwest once again.  The morning was coffee and on the road to Arches National Park.  We parked the RV in the visitor center parking lot and explored with the Jeep.  We even found a great Jeep road where we were glad we were not alone as we bottomed out on some rocks and were advised to turn around since we didn't have a beefed up suspension or raised clearance.
