Day 3 of Move (Utah)

On day three we arrive in Utah

The drive through Utah was breath taking.





At the end of the day we arrived at out hotel in Moab. This was the hardest day of driving because of how narrow the roads were for the truck and trailer.

The 2nd Day of Moving

The second day of our travels led us to Williams AZ where we took the train to the rim of Grand Canyon. This is great little town to visit

This is my beautiful wife, sporting her new REI jacket. It was just a little chilly this morning

This is the old Steam Engine that they use a few times a year. Our train was pulled by a diesel engine.

Loading up

We arrive at the Canyon


There she is in her beauty

The traveling lovers




On the way back our train got held up by some robbers.

This was a pretty fun part watching them take change from people. I had 50 cents ready but they didn't bother with me. It was a good day.

The 1st Day Move

This is our little friend named Mustard. he was a slow moving friend but was very faithful all the way to CO


This is the set up. It was very real to have everything a person owns in one rolling machine.

We drove through the desert to Williams AZ. Beautiful place.




That night we got into Williams. He was some salad and soup at the Best Western. We were very blessed to use the REI rate for this hotel
It was a little colder in the mountains.

To The Zoo Before We Leave

Before we left SD Kenny and Noel blessed us and took us to the zoo. I had never gone before, so it was a nice way to spend the last day in San Diego.
