Another 3 parter #1

November 16, 2018 / Rex / 0 Comments

11/11/2018 This morning started with another county “road” adventure. We were searching for Sprit Cave and by gosh I’m about 75% sure we found it, we found some ruins anyway. These were back under an overhang in a rocky gully. We didn’t need to do tooooo much rock climbing, this time. We did stop in …

What a day – part 3 of 3

November 15, 2018 / Rex / 0 Comments

WOW, jaw dropping is about the only way I can describe the road we took home. The road starts out for about 23 miles almost straight as an arrow up and down some very minor hills, most are covered in cedar trees that only grows about 10 feet tall, anyway it’s 23 miles of very …

What a day – part 2 of 3

November 14, 2018 / Rex / 0 Comments

11/10/2018 Once we got off the dirt, we mean county road, we realized we were only about 15 miles from Natural Bridge National Monument. Like EVERYTHING else around words or pictures just can’t describe the beauty or size of things. Gorgeous is the only one of the many words I can come up with to …

What a day – part 1 of 3

11/3/2018 With map (haha) in hand we started our day with gusto looking forward to finding some ruins and petroglyphs. The map indicated that along this one road there were several ruins and or petroglyphs. Now in this area for versions reasons there no signs or tail markers telling you where points of interest are. …

We’ve moved

November 11, 2018 / Rex / 0 Comments

11/9/2018 Elevation 4292 We decided to leave Sleeping Ute Mountain Casino and RV park a day early. As mentioned in an earlier post the temperature kept dropping and dropping, 16 or lower last night which is not to bad considering they predicted 10. Needing to get propane had a lot to do with the decision …

That could have been disappointing

November 7, 2018 / Rex / 2 Comments

11/6/2018 We hiked the Petroglyph trail in Mesa Verde today. It was an exceptionally nice day for a hike. Bright sunshine and little wind. So anyway, the hike ended up being 4.4 miles and had seeing the Petroglyphs been our only reason for the hike we would have really been disappointed. It was a long …

IMPORTANT note to self!

November 5, 2018 / Rex / 2 Comments

11/4/2018 I was going to call this, I can see for miles and miles, because when we entered the park the views were spectacular. However the deeper into the park we got the more my stomach started growling. Before we left home we discussed making sandwiches to take with us. Other topics and problems came …

WAIT, what direction did I just drive?

November 5, 2018 / Rex / 0 Comments

11/3/2018 Elevation 5678 I can’t believe I just did that, it’s totally the WRONG direction…….. north! Yup  I just drove about 120 mile north. From Gallup it’s not all that far to the 4 corners area. While the 4 corners monument was very high on my list of things to see I was underwhelmed and …

Back in cactus country

November 1, 2018 / Rex / 0 Comments

10/29/2018. Elevation 4811 We did 238  expressway miles today mostly FBB (Flat Brown & Boring). Once we got to the western edge of the TX panhandle/NM border we started seeing flat top messes. While it looks flat the ground is tilted at a fuel milage sucking upward angle. The gusty head / sideways wind didn’t …
