Vernal UT to Cheyenne WY

The Flaming gorge is 70% in Wyoming and a huge lake. The dam is in Utah.

Along I-80 is this tree which grows in the rock. Quite a specticle........ Tomorrow we plan on visiting sights in Cheyenne.

Ashley Ntl Forest/Dinosaur Ntl Monument

Hope all you fathers had a great day! Ours started from Price, Utah, driving through Ashley National Forest. Wow!! What a trip! One of those experiences that you can't capture by camera. Anyway, we arrived in Vernal, Utah late morning. Found a Walmart Super Center and settled in (along with several other RVs). After lunch, we drove approx 41 miles to the Dinosaur National Monument. (Wil's really into history!) We took the driving tour through the "park" and saw more unbelieveable scenery! After spending a few hours touring this area, we drove back to the RV, and Wil was treated to a Father's Day dinner. All in all, great fun.

Price/Helper UT

In Helper we toured the coal mine/railroad museum. Very impressive!! Many workers were killed in the early mine operations.
While in Helper we also took in a car show. The picture of this Ford P/U and it's owner was made in memorial to 9/11. What a guy to do this!!

San Rafael Museum-Castle Dale

During our second day in Castle Dale we visited the San Rafael Museum to get information on different points of interest. While there we enjoyed the display of prehistoric animal skeletons and a very impressive diorama of the area's natural beauty and wildlife. Very nice!

Our next endeavor was quite an unexpected venture! We HIKED 1 mile (with Max) to and from what is known as the Rochester Creek Art Panel. As you can see in the pictures, we had some much unneeded exposure to heights. Again, Max took my breath away!!! Anyway, this is a one of the most unusual pictograph sites in the state. Quite interesting and worth the challenging trek to get there.

Castle Dale Utah

 
The next two days, while dry camping in Castle Dale UT, we first visited what is called The Wedge Overlook. It is Utah's little grand canyon. The Overlook was spectacular but, with a 2000 foot drop, no guardrail, and a curious Max, it was a challenge for Judy to enjoy the beauty. Along the drive we spotted an Antelope and she got the picture.

Las Vegas is still alive!!

 
Our first night out was in North Las Vegas at the Elk's Lodge. Hot!! Couldn't wait until morning to head for higher country. While there we found Costco, but it was a Costco Business Center (geared for businesses) no polish dog. Dissapointed..........

Vista CA - Home

By now you have probably guessed were home. We arrived Wednesday the 29th, and are glad to be here. We will let you know of our next venture Thanks for going along with us.
