Bull Creek

Yesterday's ride through Zion National Park was absolutely stunning. Just incredible. I literally don't have the words. And the day just kept getting better because we dropped into Bryce Canyon National Park. Again, gorgeous, but cold! We saw a very short snow flurry, and I knew I didn't want to stay up there very long. We didn't. But the cold took its toll on me because the batteries in my heated gloves ran out 75 miles before we got to our hotels in Richfield, Utah. Brrrr!

Today was a shorter day, so we didn't roll until 09:00. But immediately we hit an altitude of 8,385 going over a couple of passes. Because of yesterday's near frostbite, I saved my batteries and didn't turn on my gloves until I couldn't take it anymore. Soooooo worth it though because we took a side trip into Capital Reef National Park. Oh. My. God. Another drop-dead gorgeous canyon. Just incredible natural beauty. So pretty that I and another guy lost the group because we stopped so many times to take pictures 🤣.

Now the two of us are stopped for lunch at Dukes Slick Rick Grill in Hanksville, UT. It's a haven for John Wayne memorabilia.

So long [for now], and thanks for all the ROCKS! ✌️
