Heading out of Williams, AZ
Lake Mead
Today found us headed out of Williams and onto Utah.  John didn't really want to travel through all the traffic of Las Vegas so we decided to go through Lake Meade State Park.  It is alwasys pleasure driving through the park as the scenery is quite beautiful.   The lake itself is huge and the water an incredible blue but I think it is the surrounding rock structures and the desert fauna and flora that make this area a magnet for bicyclers and motocycle enthusiasts.  Not to mention all the boaters and lakers!!


Beautiful scenery throughout the park


Another great fire
We travelled into Utah today and stopped just south of Overton for the night.  We are now one day away from Nephi where Kay will once again be staying with the cats for the summer.  It is soon time for her to go back to work so tonight, we will take some time to have one final "road" fire and enjoy the evening.
I don't think the cats were too impressed with the hard gravel and rocks this place had to offer but it was for only one night and if we could manage to not trip and twist our ankles, then they too would have to put up with it.  When it was time to head into bed though, neither one of the little buggers wanted to come in for the night so they in fact, stayed outside for the night.  Shit, Oh Dear,  stupid cats.  Oh well, we all thought they would climb up onto the gas tank of the truck and sleep there. After all, they had not ventured very far from camp in the past week so we really were not too worried about them!!
