We had a change in plans. Instead of spending the night in Great Basin NP in Nevada, we went to Capitol Reef...never heard of it. Well, it may have become our favorite park. It's the largest water pocket fold in North America... I know...who knew! But actually it is really interesting, with an oasis, fruit trees, hiking trails... We went for a short hike, along a cliff face. If you slipped, it could be sudden death. After a geological presentation we were
only somewhat less confused about where these rock formations came from... but we did find out that they sell cinnamon rolls and pies every morning, which was something that we completely understood. Sites were a little unlevel, well maybe more than a little! In the morning we are off to Vegas to see the kids, have a good meal, see a show.. As they say in the west... Onward Ho!
