Sept. 11th

Dead Horse State Park and Island in the Sky Canyonland was on our agenda today.

We stopped at the Visitor Center and this was the view.

Barry noticed vehicles and bicycles on the road below us.  When we arrived at the Canyonlands, he wanted to drive the Shafer Trail Road. 

This is the map of our ride.

We made it to Potash, Utah and found a Corona and Peabody Arch to hiked .  Up the 400 ft. rock hill, crossing train tracks, crossing rocks using a rope and climbing up steps using a wire rope in the rocks, pretty much rock climbing. I enjoyed doing that.  Then, up a ladder which we did not do since we could see both of them from where we were.

We see these flowers everywhere

Barry and I received a care package from the farm on Thursday. My brother, Hank, said he was coming out to visit. He tried to trick us; didn’t work, I really thought he was coming, got him a site. Jim and Mark also was part of this scheme.

Thanks for thinking of us.
