Awake: 6:06am Temp 48 sleep 6+23 sunny overnight @ Las Vegas, Nevada.
Today is moving day; after our coffee, Kathy retracted the rear slides & organized some of the things that might fall on the floor during our travels; while she is doing that, I attached our tow car & retracted the shore cable.
We left the Riviera RV Park in Las Vegas @ 7:35am traveling initially on I-515, & then changed to I-15 north to Mesquite where we crossed into Arizona for about (30) miles before entering Utah.
Kathy takes a photo of the Kolob Canyons in Utah.
We continued north on I-15 until Cove Fort & then changed to I-70 eastbound.
Kathy, did you ask for air conditioning or heat?
We make a Flying "J" fuel stop @ Richfield, Utah.I don't need fuel now but further east, we'll be doing some mountain climbing so it's better to be safe than sorry. (100) gallons of diesel fuel @ $2.94 per gallon & we're back on the road again.
If you look closely @ the stone wall, you'll see an old prospector with BIG EYES.
(123) miles later, we arrived @ Green River, Utah & checked in @ the A/OK RV Park @ 3:15pm.
Irene gave us a lengthy campsite & good thing; a few trees were blocking our satellite signals so we pulled forward about (25) ft; enough to get those DirecTV signals through the open southwest direction. Now our shore cable & water hose are both stretched out to about (25 & 30 ft).
Today's travel: 411 miles 7+20 time 71 gal used 5.8 mpg 56 avg speed.
Before dinner, I hooked up our tow car so I won't have to do it in the early morning.
Dinner: left over turkey with gravy, acorn squash, asparagus, & rice with golden raisins.
After the dinner dishes were cleaned by Kathy, I reeled in the water hose & filters, saving me from having to roll in a stiff hose in the morning; there is a forecast freezing temps overnight.
Evening movie: "It's a Wonderful World" with Claudette Colbert, James Stewart, Guy Kibbee, Nat Pendleton, Frances Drake, Edgar Kennedy, etc. Screwball comedy with Colbert a runaway poetess, Stewart a fugitive chased by cops Pendleton and Kennedy. Very, very funny, with Stewart having a field day. 1939. Screwball comedy it was, but we were not laughing. Kathy couldn't wait for the finish.
Lights out: 11:55pm.
