Utah

 Rained all night while in Limon woke up to the truck sitting in a puddle of water. We couldn't get out without stepping in water. Decided to take quick showers and leave at 630. We packed up moved the truck next to the showers BUT by the time we got out of showers the winds
were 40 to 50 mph. For a while we thought we would be stuck there. Around 8 winds calmed down and we were able to get on the road. Along the way we stopped at Royal Gorge. Once again if you know me you know my fear of heights. But I sucked it up. First we took a gondola over the gorge then we hiked around and walked back on the bridge in wind gusts. Then we took a train down to the bottom of the gorge.  Really was beautiful. We spent about 4 hours just messing around there. Then we headed on our journey again. We headed up Monarch Pass. Yes someplace's in the country really got snow this year. Once again it was gorgeous. Monarch has a wonderful ski area I hope we get to go back sometime for skiing.


After getting over the pass we found this wonderful lake. (Someplace Co.)This was the view out of the camper back door. We stayed the night 3.00 to camp There were maybe 5 RVS there. 

The following day we reached Utah. We took lots of pictures every-time there was a view point we would stop and take pictures. But pictures just do not do it justice. You need 3d. The rock formations and vistas are breathtaking.




 Reached Nevada today. Stopped and had breakfast in Austin Nevada

Our journey is coming to a end. It has been wonderful. We are in Reno currently. Will do some shopping in the Am and head home tomorrow so we can get ready for our next trip to Cody Wy for 4th of July and Yellow Stone. Can't wait!!!!
