We left Dolores at 12:30 yesterday, not quite 10AM like I
wanted but close enough. We were
able to dump all the tanks (black & gray) that needed to be dumped and fill
all the tanks (fuel, water & LP) that needed to be filled!
The place where we fueled up is on the north side of Cortez
and the entrance into it is kind of dicey. There is not a real smooth entrance and on my way out the
rear wheels dipped into a not so smooth spot and everything in the coach got
flung back and forth! Even
Midnight the cat went for a wild ride!
She was in the new recliner/slider and as it came up and went back and
forth all I could see in my peripheral vision was one unhappy cat! Only a few things out of the cabinets
hit the floor and several drawers flew open but nothing was damaged or
lost. Whew!
The drive from Dolores, CO to I-70 was fairly
uneventful. I have been having
problems with my right eye lately.
I think I may have scratched either the eyeball or the lid. Fortunately, I had one of those shades
that fit inside your glasses the ophthalmologist gives you after you have had
your eyes dilated. That helped
with the glare but my eyes were starting to get tired so Mike took over driving
from I-70 to just outside of Salina, UT.
Yes, Mike does get to drive once in a while.
The park we stayed at in Salina, UT used to be a KOA,
obvious by the shape of the office and that it was still listed as a KOA in our
2011 Trailer Life. Nice little
park, lots of pull-throughs so we didn’t have to disconnect the car. One interesting thing about this place
is the abundance of bunny rabbits running around. Not wild ones, but domestic ones of all colors! Drove Jenny crazy when we took her for
a walk. Mike took some pictures
but none came out. Dang it!
We’ll see how far we get today. Stay tuned!

Hey, cool! We drove the "loneliest highway" last summer on our way to see you, and loved it! We stayed in Fillmore, on I-15, not far from Salina. I'm loving these updates.
