Hi girls, Zion is amazing but Bryce with low sun angles on the hoodoos are some of my favorite views in Utah's high canyon lands.

So where to next or does that require too much planning....you do know that Colorado is just a bit east of you and worth a visit.

Safe travels,

Breathtaking pictures ladies!!! Zion and Bryce Canyon. Is that close to the Badlands Monument Valley?

We seem to be going slowly what with the sightseeing and all. I think we may head up to Arches National Park today.

From the map it looks like Colorado might not be too far from there.

Yup, definitely drifting that way. We are having breakfast at a coffee house at the intersection of 12 and 24 somewhere in Utah.

Have the honey badgers had their morning walk and badger chow?
You know how they get cranky in their crate!

Dear Michelle: 
Thank you so very much for keeping me and all of your readers and followers updated on your whereabouts.   

I have traveled extensively throughout the USA and Canada and am following your trip with great interest as I did with the trip that @Laurie took in the springtime alone in her truck...  or did she have you tied up in the back seat???

Any pictures and dialog that you post will be read with great interest....
Oh yeah, Arches in Moab, UTAH is a must see, you and Laurie will surely enjoy it.   
Just make certain that your vehicle air conditioning is in top shape!!!!
According the weather forecast.... over 100 degrees each day this week.

Thanks again for keeping us all posted, and be sure to untie Laurie from time to time.

Hugs, and well wishes,
Danielle

Don't take an odd road out of town. My brother did when we went and after driving 50 or so miles down the road there was a bridge. A car can get through but a pickup and camper has maybe 2 inches of clearance on each side. Nice view though. Take a float trip while you are there. Bryce and Zion are beautiful but don't get caught in a flash flood as the Virgin River gets a little rambunctious. Colorado is beautiful. I almost moved there in 1980. My sister lived there for thirty years in Longmont and Greeley.  You can take the road through the National Park and the highest road in the US down to Estes Park. Lot's of wildlife. Boulder City rocks. Maybe catch a concert at Red Rocks. Lot's of nice museums in Denver. Also there is Golden for some refreshment. Leadville on the west side of the mountains as well as Molybedam. Of course if you want to visit one of the most right wing cities in the country there is Colorado Springs.

Hi Faith,

  Laurie of Michelle & Laurie, the wandering waits of Susan's Place. As you know how HRT is  going to affect you will vary. The only part of that I  will talk about is to say body hair changes were slow for me but it did happen. Give it more time.

So, I am wondering if you'll get a chance to take the Utah State Ferry. Yes it actually exists. You drive about 40 miles on a gravel road to get there, very pretty, and hot, and (yes) possible in a Prius, as we did it. But might delay you, and I know how focused you are on quick progress LOL. Or is that HRT progress I'm thinking about?

Colorado Springs is indeed more right wing than some places, but it has mellowed since the 80's and 90's. As long as you stay central and west side it's pretty darn tolerant, as I can attest.

Hi folks,

  Wandering waifs of Susan' Place here checking in. We did not make hardly any forward progress yesterday at all. Two days gone and only about 450 miles. I think my traveling companion deployed  a land anchor to slow us down. It was either that or her desire to stop and see ever angle of wind and rain deformed rock outcropping in Bryce Canyon. She also insists on stopping at a motel or KOA park as soon as it gets dark. No wonder we can't get anywhere. I swear!

  Today we continued on hwy 12 through Henrieville east to Boulder, Utah. We went through Escalante to get there. 12 all the way north to a little coffee shop in Torrey for coffee and breakfast.  Then it was east on 25 through Capital Reef national park to Hainsville. Then north on 24 up to I-70. A quick jaunt east to the I-191 south on our way to Arches national park  where there will no doubt be another touristing slowdown.

  We are still getting along though I think I disappointed her at inspiration point yesterday.

Hugs.
  Michelle & Laurie
