Nevada through Utah

The trip from Snowflower to where I stopped for the weekend was so-so. A lot of wonderful pictures that I could have taken had there been a place to pull off the Interstate. I listened to books on CD by Sue Grafton and started to listen to one of Al Franken's books. I'll listen to the rest of that one as I finish the trip to Colorado. Coming over one mountain pass, I saw snow on the tops of the mountains ahead but no place to stop to snap a photo. The first place I could stop for pictures was at the rest stop by the Bonneville Salt Flats. The state has built nice rest stops on both sides of the Interstate with views that are often beautiful.


I spent the weekend parked at the Flying J in Springville, UT waiting for the weather to clear between here and Glenwood Springs, CO where I'll stop for a couple of weeks to spend some time with Jamie Lee, Tracey, James and TJ. Hopefully, there will be turnouts on the roads I'll travel because I'm sure there will be some lovely views.

I did get to watch the races; not too happy with the finish of either of them, since neither Jeff Gordon nor Dale Earnhardt, Jr. won the Sprint Cup race.

Did I accomplish anything this weekend? Well, the bottom of the drawer where my china was stored broke out so I did rearrange a cupboard so the dishes have a new home. But the measuring cups, hand mixer and food grinder still need a new home. They will probably travel on the couch for now. ;-)
