The only age we are chasing is 59 and a half. Can't wait to spend that 401k and go on on another trip! You know I'm kidding we have at least 4 weeks saved up! We keep trying to find places that are in the 70 degree range no humidity, only sunny,friendly people and free beer. I think Adam and Eve messed that up for us but we keep chasing it.
So Zion was nice and very majestic. It should be majestic it took some 275 million years to get it to look that good. God works slow look how long He has taken on building me and I don't think He's done with me just yet. We wanted to go to Bryce Canyon after Zion but it was snowing and in the low 20's at night. So we chased 70's and headed for Nevada and Lake Mead. We stayed in two different spots on Lake Mead. The inside temperature of the camper shot up to 97 Fahrenheit in the afternoon but the nights were cool and the price was right(5.00 per night). It was sad at the lake they are running out of water and the first marina we stayed at was actually closed. The criminal part of our world had destroyed all of the resort and restaurant.
Well obviously the only thing the princess hates more than cold weather is scorching hot weather. So we are off again chasing 70.

We head back toward Utah. The weather should be just perfect. So check out the tunnel we decided to go through to get to our next spot. The place was called Red Cliff Canyon. Temperature 75 degrees( were getting better). We hiked for a couple of hours(okay maybe like an hour) and took a bunch of pictures. Left in the morning and headed toward Green River State Park. They have a golf course inside the Park. Perfect we didn't even have to move the Minnie we drove the cart back and grabbed the clubs. We lost a bunch of golf balls now we are going to Wal Mart to get more.
We leave Green River and head toward Arches National Park. Another very scenic National Park. We did some serious hiking and stayed at a camp ground called Dead Horse. The movie Thelma and Louise was filmed at this park. We could only stay one night then moved to a spot 3 miles away called Horse Thief campground. No hookups so we are on our own for water and electric. It snowed and once again we need to look for 70!

Now these are some of my favorite signs. This means we are done trying to be hikers. I will leave you with a picture of a snake that we encountered on one of our "hikes" try to blow up the picture it was quite scary.
Look in the middle of this picture and you can see the yellow and black stripes on the snake. We were walking right there on that path. I threw some small rocks at the snake and realized why I was cut from the baseball team. Finally I annoyed the snake enough and he slithered away. It was at least 8 foot long well maybe 2 feet.
Another reason why this hiking stuff is way over rated and obviously dangerous to your health.

Well it's time to chase the 70 degree weather in north east Ohio. We cheated winter this year and it will be extremely hard to spend winter again in the North. But with friends and family like you our readers I'm sure we'll make it. Don't be surprised though if you see a 27 foot Minnie Winnie driving off into the night headed for the warm breeze and campfires we call our road home.Until we write and travel again stay warm or cool but always stay HAPPY.
