Awake: 6:19am Temp 47 Clear Overnight @ Hurricane, Utah
After morning coffee, we walk the campground 35 min for exercise, then
take turns talking with Melissa in Anchorage on our cell phone. She
reports: All is well with the Footes.
We leave the Zion Gate RV Park @ 11:58am. Short trip today and all uphill.
Arrive @ The Red Ledge RV Park @ 12:51 & the campground is located right
on the main street in the town of Kanarraville, Utah., population 320.
This is the smallest RV park that we have stayed in so far. They have 22
sites total & 5 BIG rig sites.
Today’s travel: 53 min 35.4 miles 7.63 gal 4.64 mpg 46.3 avg
speed
After parking & eating some lunch, we walk another 45 min for exercise &
to explore this new town. Our walk was cut short though due to rain
showers. We did find out that the town was founded by Mormons in 1841 &
has been kind of a bedroom community for the nearby town of Cedar City (12
miles away). Kanarraville however, is well laid out with wide streets,
spacious home sites, large shade trees, etc. So after 164 yrs, the
potential for growth may still be possible?
8:10pm Dinner: Lamb chops with mint jelly & baked potato.
Mid evening: watch DVD movie from the campground library: “Ray.” A great
movie.
I had no idea of this man’s struggle with drugs & his incredible musical
talent.
High temp today=63 Lights out: 12:34am
