Oasis - Las Vegas

Apparently, this is becoming our comfort place. Plus, it was about half way for our trip back home - any excuse for some good food and maybe a flirt with Lady Luck! Alas, no luck tonight, but we did have some good Japanese food!! Today, we also knocked off a couple of new roads that we had never been on before. If you don’t know, we (read - Nan) highlight a road atlas for all of the roads we travel. So, we know where we have or have not been. Now, we’ve color coded our highlighting between DuEtte vs another vehicle. We’ve managed to highlight many new roads on this trip, even though we’ve been in this neck of the woods many times. Anyway, it looks like we are coming to the end of this adventure. We are hoping to be home at some point tomorrow. It will be a bit of a slog, but it is time to go home…

Here are a few last peeks at Lake Powell…

After the big excitement from yesterday, we HAD to have another down day! So, not much to comment on today. Omelettes for breakfast, some touch up painting on DuEtte from all of the rock encounters (did I mention we had to break out the Gorilla Tape again for our ‘fixed’ windshield crack that decided to expand on this trip!?!), and general puzzling and reading - all in all, a grand day! Here is the river we are parked next to and an uninvited visitor:

We’ve made it to Lake Powell! It was a glorious travel day. We went through a corner of Zion NP and went through the historic tunnel that connects highway 89 with Zion. The tunnel was built before wide-bodied vehicles. So, to accommodate, they make the tunnel one-way traffic (just like a construction zone), and, if you happen to be oversized (as we are) you pay an extra $15 fee for the privilege to drive down the middle of the tunnel road - it was kind of cool! Then, we meandered through the Vermillion Cliffs area before arriving at Lake Powell. There are around 63 Leisure Travel Vans here for the rally. We recognize a few folks from the last rally we attended in Las Vegas. So far, it has been nice to talk with folks. The weather is beautiful, but the Lake is still soooo low - it’s sad to see…

Today we did the Upper Antelope Canyon Slot Canyon Tour. It was pretty amazing to walk through a very narrow passage through a rock canyon carved by water and wind. The colors and geometry and curves and angles and depth and magnitude were just incredible! It was almost too much to take it all in. We took many many photos, but none of them do the space justice. Nonetheless, we have the experience and the images in our mind to remember what it was like. Just another step in the RV adventure…
