We got back Wednesday night, after a great 6700 mile journey to southern Utah. I
can't believe I've waited this long to see what that place has to offer. We
started with the Colorado National Monument then went on to Arches National Park
and Canyonlands National Park while staying in Moab, UT. We then went to Bryce
Canyon NP, stopping at Capitol Reef NP on the way. Utah Highway 12 is probably
the most scenic of all the 'Scenic Byways' in the United States. We spent four
nights in the Bryce Canyon area, and could have used a couple more. The place is
unreal.

From Bryce Canyon we went through the Dixie National Forest down to the North
Rim of the Grand Canyon. The North Rim, to me anyway, is much more beautiful
than the South Rim, so I'm glad we went the way we did. After a couple days
there, we took off for Zion National Park, spending a few days seeing the sights
there. The next stop was Page, AZ, where we took a tour of the Lower Antelope
Canyon. This is another of those otherworldly places that is just beautiful. A
night in Page, and we were on our way to Monument Valley, in the Navajo Nation.
Yes, I bought my turquoise belt buckles and a ring. Typical tourist.

A few days and nights in Monument Valley and we headed for Albuquerque, NM, to
visit my wife's sister. By then we were ready to get home, and put in a few 600
mile days to get here.

Will get some pictures up soon, but have a whole potfull to organize.

If you've not been to southern Utah, it's an experience you should try. The
place is amazing. With all the sights we've seen, I'd go back again tomorrow
just to see the stuff we missed - and we missed a lot!

Excellent, John! And I was so glad to meet you and Mrs. Herring for
lunch. I trust the cat had a great time as well.


Actually, the cat did much better than we'd even hoped for. He just laid back in
the trailer when at a campground, and did very well in the car also. He'd
usually take an hour to settle down in the car, but the meowing wasn't bad. With
my ears, I couldn't hear it anyway!

I had no idea Utah was that far. I was a little farther west than you
for a week, out in Nevada, and it only took 4.5 hours to go the 2400 miles.


How many miles was it on the way back to Alexandria?


You had to go all the way to Las Vegas to get laid? Are the cat houses in Huntingtown closed for the winter already?


He's into the bathhouses, of course.


....and the panty liner says I " machine gun post "....LMAO !!!!!

Look at Krueger here.....

That cat's got some of the coolest whiskers... It was fun talking to

Hey, little buddy, you're getting almost as low life and vulgar as
slammer! Wake your drunken piece of crap son up, he's probably having
d.t.'s by now.

We were in Utah a little on the New Mexico Arizona trip, this beach on
Lake Powell.

Caution There is a boat in this picture

http://gfretwell.com/ftp/Lake%20powell%20wade.jpg


If and when we go again, renting a boat for a day or two on Lake Powell will be
on the 'to do' list. There's just too much to see out there to do it all in one
trip. Now we have an excuse to go back.

Nice pic, BTW.
