Jumped on the interstate after breakfast and headed east towards the Colorado border past the off ramp for Moab. Forty miles down the road came to the back way down to Moab Utah. This was a great two lane road along side the Colorado River and on into Moab. Once we got there found out it was one of the busiest days of the year with custom cars and hot rods in town for the weekend.
We drove to Arches Park and took the 36 mile loop into the park marveling at the rock formations and the one arch we could see without a hike. Stopped at the visitor center on the way out and debated putting on rain gear as it was starting to look very threatening.
Took a what the heck lets drive attitude and immediately found ourselves in bumper to bumper with the regular traffic and show cars. Left town south to Montecello Utah for the night with very scary dark skies and a dropping temperature. Got into town and the sky started to clear, walked next door for a good home cooked style meal and good conversation.
With today's good roads and great vistas it was a great day but could have used less wind on the final leg we'll see what tomorrow brings.

After almost 2 weeks, you're STILL saying "it was a great day" of two lane roads and not the friendliest weather!?!! You sure do love your bike!! Glad you're enjoying the trip!
Love you!
Looking forward to a "good home cooked style meal and good conversation" too...dog still just whining, but he now knows the hand that feeds him. Be careful.
Love, me
What an amazing coincidence. Earlier today I was driving down a six lane named Union Hills when off in the distance I caught a glimpse of Golden Arches glowing in the setting sun. For some strange reason seeing them reminded of the exact opposite of a home cooked meal. Who knew that Moab and Phoenix had some many things in common?
