Goodbye Moab

Day 36
Moab UT- Notom UT

1. Wake up and shiver until you put on pants
2. Make coffee and breakfast
3. Walk the dog until he poops
4. Take a poop yourself
5. Drive down 2 miles of greasy muddy gravel roads in a 31 foot house on wheels
6. Fill up on water at the local Lion's club park while people stare at you like a weirdo
7. Drive down to the Maverick gas station for a dump station and wait in line
8. Drive back to the park to meet the wife and hook up Shirley
9. Make lunch while planning your next move
10. Hit the road running to climb out of the river valley and find home for the night

Ah yes another day of unplanned adventure awaits us. We throw a haphazard route together and hit the asphalt at full speed. Today we plan on making it out to Capitol Reef National Park. We know nothing about this place or the mystery that it holds. It's only a couple of hours from Moab... so we are pretty chill about finding a place to call home tonight. 

We ended up pulling into a rest area right before the park and unhook Shirley. She takes us up a nearby road for only a couple of miles and we see some beautiful BLM parking just waiting to be claimed. 

Eli gets to have his favorite type of walk; unleashed. This gorgeous oasis in the middle of Utah turns out to be a very welcome sight for some wear travelers. No TV, no cell signal, and no radio stations. A little secluded? Absolutely. Guess we'll just have to make do.
