“Moab is calling and I must go”
Easy drive from Monticello into Moab, and each mile revealed more and more of the red rock that makes it a desert playground. I wanted to have ample time to find a campsite, do tent repairs, and have a leisurely setup. Mission accomplished.
Even though I have covered lots of ground quickly I have still had occasion to step aside and enjoy the scenery and wildlife along the way. That is what makes the effort worth while.
