There is something about the vibrations of my van when it gets on the road again that makes me smile all over. Once again I am unfettered and in the "new adventures" mode. Today's journey exemplifies the ideal. I planned a short trip (233 miles) for today, knowing that my sister Ada was making the departure from her home for two months, and there a numerous last minute details to attend to. Our journey today took us across the Indian lands of Northern Arizona and Utah. This is truly the land of the Big Sky, and where all the old single-wide trailers are living out the remaining time of their usefulness.
We ended the day in Monticello, Utah, founded in the 1800's. A fascinating museum told its story, we dined in a local Cafe, then headed up the mountain to camp in a National Forest. We are sharing the campground with more deer than people. It is refreshingly cool. Ada has her tent set up, I am all set up in my van, and we are enjoying the end of a delightful day. This is what it's all about! Love, Liz
