I guess this is just our lucky day! We leave Kanab headed north to stop in Richfield for a grocery stop. We haven’t seen a well stocked grocery for almost 3 weeks and I can’t wait for a shopping extravaganza. Lulled by the scenic ride that I love up US 89 along the Sevier River, […]
Nature’s Museum of Art
Some of the art is man-made. We pass this “Pioneer Billboard” on the Johnson Canyon Driving tour. Storm and I gingerly explore the scenic roads and easier trails around the Vermilion Cliffs and Grand Staircase-Escalade. Until we install a lift kit on the Jeep, we are trying to be gentle with it.
