DAY

The Launch debacle and goodbye Moab

Before dawn cracked, Ian set himself up to watch the 6am launch of NASA's "Artimis" sadly the take off never took off ...So here we are on our way, Apache Motel hoodie purchased.. The Utah highway gives a multi coloured sand and rock display on our long journey.

The rocks form an extraordinary array of alien style formations.

Lunch at Popeyes a Louisiana themed, fast food chicken fest.

Continuing our homage to "Yellowstone" The Costner series, we stopped by the Outlaw Saloon Ogden, used as a nightclub location in the production.

Our next stop off the Cobblestone inn and suites, with its "worlds most complicated check in system", in Soda Springs.
The area boasts a hot spring which performs on the hour, every hour.

Early settlers drilling down for oil, were dismayed to find a mighty hot spring.

Many have tried to harness the 72 degree flow, however their efforts have resulted in this interesting feature.

As night draws in at Soda Springs, the stars shine brightly.

Dinner and a beer at Porters Restaurant and pub, before a date with a washer and dryer. We now have pants!

Goodnight dear reader, til tomorrow xx
