Not a bad night in Tulsa at the old Cracker Barrel. A bit of extra noise as we parked too close to the 24 hour McDonalds and iHOP. Morning walk was around the residential neighbourhood near the Cracker Barrel. I passed a huge Harley Davidson dealer and an even bigger? Boot Barn. Too bad both…
Yup, still “Kitty Quay”. Short post today as it was mostly driving. Morning walk was relaxed. It was a good temp at 13C but very strong winds made the path home more work than it should have been. I did the Canyon Rim trail which is pretty flat. The highlight was seeing these buddies from…
It’s still pronounced “Kitty Quay”. Today we stayed put, relatively. I failed to post a picture of yesterday’s awesome campsite. I started the day by sleeping in a lot. Well, the time change helps a bit. None of my normal wakeful period between 0300 and 0500. Today it was straight through until 0615 when I…
We pronounce it “Kitty Quay”. That’s the way the sign says to pronounce it. Nice morning walk around the acceptable campground and out onto Route 66. It was a balmy -1C when I started but no real wind. At home, -2C and above is shorts weather until the mosquitos come out. While I was on…
Before we talk about last night, let us cover off a significant omission from the day 31 post. When we were at the 4 corners and I was wandering on the outskirts of the main attraction, I glanced into a hole and saw this little snake catching some rays. I tried to show Mrs Milddogs…
Our neighbour last night from from the rental armada. Mrs Milddogs pointed out the picture of the mesa from Monument Valley on the side of the motorhome. We found it funny. It was a good night sleep despite the wind. Yup, we’ve got big wind again. Slow drag out of bed as we weren’t in…
I forgot to mention. We are now in Mountain Time. We lost an hour as we entered the Navajo Nation. You see Arizona does not do DST. So even though they are MST, they do not switch to MDT. The Navaho Nation which spans several states does use DST for consistency. It was a good…
Yes. A new state. Welcome to Utah! After a lovely visit from our elk friend last night, what could today bring us? Such opportunities to see the canyon at sunrise. Such opportunity to sleep right through sunrise and then be greeted by a semi-cloudy morning. Happily, Sunnyvale was pretty quiet. The trailer next to us…
FOUR WEEKS. FOUR WHOLE WEEKS OF TRAVELLING AROUND SEEING SIGHTS IN OUR LITTLE VAN!!!!! Our sleepy time at the government land was wonderful, but a wee bit on the cold side. Amy was in full cuddle mode. We had the furnace set for 13C and it first fired up around 0200. I don’t know what…
What a lovely state park Dead Horse Ranch turned out to be. We were a little tired when we got there yesterday so we did not explore much. But this morning I looked up a trail on All Trails and set out for a nice walk. Well, well, well. It was really different from anything…
