Summer 2010: Two days....

Yesterday we rode from Beaver, Utah to Page Arizona via Bryce Canyon...we opted not to go to Zion because of time. Turned out to be a good decision because there is a huge fire in Flagstaff that would have impacted us.

We all now have National Park Passports....and are hoping to get many stamps this ride.

Advice - when going to Bryce Canyon National Park take advantage of the free shuttle service. It just isn't work the hassle of finding a parking spot when the shuttle takes you everywhere, drops you off and there is another shuttle within 10 minutes.

Nice Super 8 in Page. Ken's Old restaurant was recommended by staff at the Super 8and it was an excellent meal.

Today we headed to Four Corners National Monument. Should have checked first - it is closed for construction. At least we weren't the only people who did not know it was closed as there were other people on motorcycles and motorhomes turning around too! It just seems odd to have a national monument closed during tourist season.

We continued on Hwy 160 to Durango for a beverage at McDonald's before riding to Farmington.

We stayed at American's Best Value Inn. This facility has just changed hands and the new owners are making headway to making this into a nice place. The pool was being repaired so that was a bummer.

We've had a great ride....
