Day 134

Yesterday's Outing

Sep 17, 2013, 7:11 PM

First I want to say thank you all so much for your concern and your prayers. As of 7:00 PM Mountain Time we have heard that Kathy is in recovery. It was a very long day, but we are hopeful. Thank you again for all of your support. 

Route 89, Scenic Byway

Yesterday we drove the Route 89, Scenic Byway going through the Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument. We had a wonderful day, no snakes either. We saw amazing rock formations, canyons, and vistas. We hiked up to see a cave and saw a dragon made out of rocks and an Indian silhouette. We had lunch in one of the three places we past in about 130 miles of road. Then we traveled on and saw great sights. We stopped almost everywhere we could find to get photos and just take a look. We even stopped on our way home at a spot where there were about ten cars parked. We thought we might find a great sight or possibly an animal encounter, but there was nothing to see. We couldn't even tell where all those people were. There was a fence and we didn't see a gate, just a grassy field on the other side of the fence, but nothing else. Nothing! Crazy! As we were leaving we giggled cause someone else was pulling in, only to find nothing there. 

Today we decided to take a day off and stay close to the phone waiting for a call about Kathy. We haven't made our plans for tomorrow yet. Good night and thank you all again for your concern, prayers, and support. It goes a long way to know that people are thinking about you. Good night all.
