Spanish Trail RV Park Moab, Utah

Today we dove just a short distance to Moab. 

Wilson Arch.  I watched the guy in the white shirt hike down the hill with this cello strapped to his back…not sure what he was doing with it way up there!

We had hoped to make some plans and reservations on the road, but we had very limited WiFi for the past three days.  We tried the Koa just south of town.  They were full and they wished us luck.  It is finally lower than 100 degrees here and it is their very busy season.  We were also waiting for it to be cooler before we came so we get it.  We did find a site at Spanish Trail RV Park but only for one night, tomorrow we can stay here if we move to another site and then only for one night.  At least this gives us a chance to scope out the area, see what we want to do, and find another place to stay.  The campground is not lovely, but it has everything we need.  I spent the afternoon catching up on the blog and doing laundry.  Tim was able to watch the Ravens game and rest today.  We did go get groceries and the store was mobbed.  We are not accustomed to being around so many people! 

We rode along the Colorado River.  There are several BLM campgrounds right by the water.  They are first come, first serve.  I don’t know if we will get to stay there or if we will find something else.

I love these imposing burnished coppery cliffs.

Later this evening we went to Fiesta Mexicana for dinner.  The food was good and the margaritas even better!
