'18/#9 Signs You Are A Traveler

There is no doubt that we are travelers or nomads or Gypsies. Just look back through our blogs. But signs that we are on the road are sometimes interesting to share. There are the usual stack of fuel receipts and receipts from various campgrounds. And then there are the signs that say "we're not in Kansas anymore!".

First there was the weather. Two weeks ago we had 90 degree weather and now I am looking out my window at 1 to 3 inches of snow. The terrain was another give-away. Leaving flat desert and now driving the red mountains of  Utah at elevations around 9000 feet is a different experience. Lastly there are the everyday things like going to the store. Hellman's mayonnaise is known as Best Foods west of the Rockies and what

do I find in the local market? As you can see we must be west of the Rockies!

Now that we are in the little town of Panguitch we took a ride and did some exploring in and around Bryce Canyon. A thousand pictures later we are once again amazed at the handiwork of Mother Nature. Being a quite a bit north of South Texas and at about 9000 feet the temps had dropped drastically and the winds had picked up. We were bundled up but still had enough of the cold. Today's weather is going to be nasty so we will be staying in and just relaxing for the day.

Tomorrow we will check out Zion National Park. After that we will head on north to Salt Lake City and the Bonneville Salt Flats. For now we are just staying warm in our home in Panguitch Utah because....

Home is where we park it,
