For our anniversary this year we took a lovely drive through the mountains
close to here to see the aspen and enjoy the day. The colors are amazing and
are just getting started. Aspen anniversary pix
We are beginning our last month here in Utah. I’ve been wanting to go hiking in
Escalante. We finally got to go last
week and hiked a slot canyon. We just
about got shook to death driving the 27 miles into the monument as the road was
so washboarded. Then we had to hike down
into the dry river bed…really beautiful, lots of trees and rock walls. We found
the entrance to the canyon and had a great hike. Lucy is now officially a
mountain goat! Then we had to hike back up out…only had to rest twice…not bad
for these old timers! Slot canyon pix
Saw a great sight in the town of Escalante, the Shooting Star Drive in
and Airstream resort. Make up your
own story ….. Drive in pix
Jim’s been fishing a lot. Lucy helps herd the cows when they
are in the meadow. There are times when he feels like the Pied Piper when he looks around and 20 cows are following Lucy along behind him. LOL. Check out this 22” Brown he caught …… Trout pix
We’ve also fished at several lakes around here and driven up
Proctor Canyon. Here are more fall colors. Fall colors pix
Yesterday we had our 1st winter storm blow
through. Had a beautiful rainbow in the evening and snow the next morning. Snow on the cliffs pix
We'll be out of here in a couple of weeks and will keep you posted on our travels...as of now we are heading to Florida to Fish Eating Creek Outpost. Here is the website Fish Eating Creek Wildlife management area.
