We put in one very long day yesterday driving 8 hours pulling the 5er in some of the highest wind and wind gusts I have ever been in.
To give you an idea of what the first leg of our trip yesterday was like there was 94 miles between any form of civilization. The Dually with it's tow haul on helped "hold down" our speed as we descended the mountains some 4000 ft in altitude, all with gusts of wind up to 50+ mph at our back. Needless to mention there were very few others on the road.
Then after driving for 8 hours as mentioned we wrestled to park the 50+ foot rig (Dually and RV) into an almost full park in St. George Utah on a very small access road. Needless to say we did not park it on the first try. The lot we are staying in is wide with a patio, palm tree and picnic table which besides being nice also got in the way.
Man am I shot today and guess I kept poor Cindy up most of the night with my snoring. Sorry Honey.
Well I am going to get something to eat and take a nap.
It's always an Adventure!
To add my two cents worth, I am happy as a clam to be back in Utah. Nevada is a state I don't care if I ever see again. There is nothing there to do and just miles and miles of nothingness. Oh, ok, the mountains are beautiful, but even that can get boring without a break of any kind. Like maybe a town that is actually a town and not some ramshackled mess.
The only thing to do in Nevada is to gamble or get laid. It is full of Casinos and brothels, both of which we have no interest in or can afford.
If I had my way, which I won't, hehehe, I would never leave Utah again. So far that is the most beautiful, friendly, and clean state we have been to. The resort which we are in this time is a much better place to be than the KOA we were in in Hurricane. This time we are at the Temple View RV Resort, in St George, and it is very nice. St George is much bigger than Hurricane, and today I hope to find it to be just as friendly. I am sure it will be, since Utah takes pride in their friendliness and work ethics. Not to mention keeping their state clean.
