From Stella: We got in the car and the drive was cool because we drove through different National Forests and we got to see mountains with different color layers. We stopped at a view point turn off and we found a Navajo woman selling jewelry. I bought a necklace with a dream catcher.
We checked into the hotel and blah blah blah blah. I played on a National Parks website and then we had dinner at 5 guys and came back. We went for a night swim, which was fun. I had a shower and my mom says I need to go to bed early. Boo!
From Stacey: This morning we woke up bright and early to get on the
road for the drive from the Colorado border to head to St. George, Utah.
The initial goal was to drive to Springdale, UT but that La Quinta has
had no availability for the past couple of weeks (because of it's
proximity to Zion). I think this may have worked out for the best
though. The hotel here is great, the nicest so far to fit the needs of
our traveling circus. The jury is still out on breakfast though, so we
shall see.
We stopped for coffee at a local coffee
house, Aspen Coffee, in Fruita. I love mom and pop coffee houses, they
are always so much better! We got on the road and it wasn't long before
we were in awe of the various rock formations in Utah. There are so many
from the layers and mesa's of bright red rock, to the almost stalagmite
growths of white in Fishlake National Forest.
We got
Maggie (the dog) booked for doggie day camp tomorrow, while we head off
to Zion and then we checked into the hotel. We went to dinner at 5 Guys,
yum. Then Stella and Papa had a nice little night swim. We are going to
attempt to get to bed early for our big day tomorrow.
