OFF TO UTAH 7/21-22/2011

After we left Tucumcari, NM we began driving towards Provo, UT where we were going to stay and help while our youngest son and his wife have a new baby.  The drive began to get more and more beautiful as we went through Arizona.
The rock formations were getting more and more interesting.

Then we got into some cloudy area and we were really thankful for some rain.

This is Ship Rock.

The north side of Ship Rock.

Finally we crossed over into Utah!

We spent the night in Blanding UT in a trailer park near a Shell gas station and then the next morning headed out north for Provo, enjoying the beautiful rocky scenery of Southeastern Utah..

Hat Rock.

I bet you can't figure out where we are !!!

We had planned to spend a few nights here, but we felt we needed to move on to be closer to Kevin and Megan's, plus, we were not sure we wanted to tow thew trailer up the hill if we were not going to spend the night.  So, we moved on.

As we went through the canyons we saw several coal trains.  We figured they must mine it around here somewhere.

Well, we made it to Provo UT on July 22nd and set up camp at Wal-Mart for the night in Springville.  We spent the night there and then the next day set up in East Bay RV Park in Springville UT where we will stay until we finish helping Kevin and Megan.
