Tuesday WE set out for the 35 mile ride to Red Fleet State park. As Sally said “You can tell you are in Utah” as we once again rode through red rock canyons and past cliffs of different coloured rock. Red Fleet SP gets its name from an outcrop of red rock that is suggestive of a line of naval ships, yeah well you do need a bit of an imagination. The campground is right on the edge of the lake and overlooks some more really interesting sandstone rocks. We arrived just as the rangers were shutting off the water to the park, however the electricity was left on, so we were OK. The park was completely empty, just as well as the sites were about ten foot wide, drawn out on a car park. Very peaceful though. We had a wander round and took some nice pics of the scenery and sunset.
On Wednesday we had a laid back day. Got up in time to see an amazing dawn sky then strolled into Vernal for lunch and strolled round Walmart to do a bit of shopping, that was enough.

Just gorgeous! I am missing stunning scenery - see that's what you don't get in the big cities and that's why I don't like them, just have to go to see whats there then move. We have just today driven though some boring Utah scenery, long roads with desert scenery.....oh and a train! Glad you are having a great time xx
