Another travel day… We took our time packing up and hitching up, and left the RV park about 10:00 am. We drove past Arches and Canyonlands National Parks and soon we were heading west on Interstate 70. We were quickly reminded that we are not in California anymore…
As we drove we were accompanied by several other caravaners…
We pulled off into the little town of Green River. Not surprisingly, the Green River passes through here…
The Green River originates in the high plains of Wyoming, and feeds into the Colorado River in Canyonlands National Park, near Moab, Utah… We stopped here to see the Powell Museum…
The museum commemorates the journey and explorations of John Wesley Powell, who, in 1869, took several men and boats down the Green River and into the Colorado River through the Grand Canyon… We watched a video of the journey and saw many exhibits of the trip. Very interesting!
We continued our journey west, then south. This part of Utah is not covered in rocks…
But, course, soon we did find more rocks…
The road south went straight south… For miles and miles and miles…
We soon came to Capitol Reef National Park, one of the country’s newest National Parks… We saw many of the same type of rock formations that we had seen before…
One difference is that we were much closer to them…
We did not stop – there will be time for that tomorrow. Soon we arrived at the RV park in Torrey, Utah…
We enjoyed dinner at the Cafe Diablo, dining outside amongst the trees, with another caravan couple from New Jersey…
We were soon treated to a brilliant sunset…
And an enjoyable Time was had by all…
