Another beautiful and hot day. Drove to Canyonlands National Park. Another day of incredible views, much like Dead Horse State Park, perhaps deeper canyons and wider vistas. Then on to civilization. I am in Moab, a town of about 4000, but a tourist spot for a lot of jeep, kayak and rafting tours. The RV places in town are gravel rectangles with hookups. I decided to get a hotel. It is hot and I need to do laundry. I’m at a La Quinta which I have learned are very dog friendly. I have a big comfortable room with a king size bed. They have laundry facilities! I also gave Curly a bath. I love my cozy RV but it is nice to stretch out a bit and not worry about using up battery power or water. I have made arrangements to kennel Curly tomorrow and I am going on a half day rafting trip on the Colorado. Free breakfast in the morning, then on to a new adventure.
