June 28and on our way to see the town of Moab again after 19 years! But for some reason it wasn't all we'd remembered. I suppose if you are a all wheel terrain, mountain biker or mountain hiker, you will love it. But for us, it was nice but not a lot for us to do. It was HOT, the red clay mountains surround Moab and everywhere you look it was a wall of mountains! I felt Closter phobic!
The Moab Brewery was a great lil place to hang out and the OKAY RV PK ($34 per nite) was a small quaint, well kept campground. My only complaint would be NO pool! Oh and we sure could've used one!
We decided to stay only two nights and move on to Provo, Utah. And so we did....but not by way of rte 6! Tim decided to go easy on me and we took the "low" roads (interstate) along the valleys and river. I was very pleased, to say the least! Rte 6 is climbs, descents, narrow with switch backs and drop offs! Though it was an extra hour or two, the drive was nice and we had no where to be.
East Bay Rv Pk was high on a sign along the way and it was late by the time we arrived. So on we went and checked ourselves in. Gotta love those "after hour" check ins! We lucked out! a great Little park, super clean, friendly and A POOL!! We extended our stay for 4 nights and @ $30 per nite it didn't break the bank. Everything was close by and glad for that! We had been smelling a rotten egg smell and decided we may have a split or something wrong in our septic tank. Well, we found out that our chassis batteries had gone bad!! Ugh! $860 later and a Mobile Rv bill, we were up and running! Lesson to be learned, be sure ALL connections are tight and secure!! Yes, Mr "Mobile" guy fried a battery! And we learned starting up the rv before checking connections makes things go "SPARK"!!
July 4th and on our way to N. Salt Lake City and only an hour or so drive. (we won't mention burning an inch of parking break a few miles up the road, will we Tim?) ;0)
Pony Express Rv Pk is a newer park with large concrete pads, nice pool and very pristine! And at $40 per nite, it was a great location to town. Nice city with the large tabernacle that sits front and center. A very high Mormon population and very comfortable feel of safety in this city. Tim and I sad outside on the city sidewalk and enjoyed a light brunch. Explored this very pretty city, then took a drive out to The Salt Lake. Now that was very different than the lakes we're used to! No boats, No people, No life really. Other than brine shrimp and birds live here. They say that this lake is so thick with salt that anyone and everyone will float. Well, it was not the kind of water or shore I would go in! People told me it stinks and dead fish and birds were everywhere. I didn't see that. But I did see tons of bugs swarming in the air and close to the ground everywhere. We skipped the state park tour.
July 8th and we were pulling up anchor and heading to Montana!
