All the best riding it out Clikerf8. Hope to meet you on the next one.
Finally out of the rain here, between s.l.c. and capital reef.
Hard to decide what to see in time allowed, with so much to see.
But heading up to fish lake tomorrow, capital reef Tuesday/ Wednesday, than v.o.g. Thursday.
Stopped for a walk in downtown salt lake. Well worth it. Gorgeous capital building, cathedral and grounds

I'm in Logan, UT visiting a friend. Heading out tomorrow to start a slow meander towards Valley of the Gods! Woot!

 

Sunday (tomorrow) I'm headed to Mystic Hot Springs ( http://mystichotsprings.com/ ) 

then Cathedral Valley, Goblin Valley, see if Mars is open outside of Hanksville, then down to VotG by Thursday.

Eat at Blondie's in Hanksville, always good.  Ron

Storm? What storm? Thursday had us worried what with sheets of rain and gusty winds, but since then, phhhht. Nada. Typical rainy PNW. Next time, it's come he11 or high water. You folks have lots of fun. I guess we will head down the Oregon Coast and see what agates the gravel beds have.

It's looking like I might not make it to the meet-up until Saturday, but not to worry, I plan to be there in plenty of time to prepare my recipe for NM chile 'n' beans for our pot luck; I'll bring some flour tortillas, too. I'll also bring some firewood.

 

I'm looking forward to meeting you all and getting back to southern Utah, as it's been so long (almost a whole month.)

Manzanita had a tornado touch down, lots of campgrounds were closed along the coast but all in all it was good to drive through the storm. Enjoying some sunshine in Morro Bay now.

Sooo, we arrived extra early. I meant to get us here a day early - but thought day 1 was the 20th. Oops. Ha!

Wife, Koda the dog and I would love to join the party, should be there Friday afternoon.

driller - fantastic! See y'all tomorrow!
