September 8, 2015 California/Nevada/Arizona/Utah

The adventure has begun!   We spent last night camped at the Mills A-OK campground!  Deluxe accomodations for sure and we were treated to a mighty nice dinner at Applebee's too.   We decided to start the journey a day early and get those LA miles under our belt on Labor Day - traffic was very light headed north.

We were in essence boondocking - meaning we had no hookups.  So it was a little warm with no air conditioner but we opened the windows and the desert cooled off nicely.   I didn't sleep (gee nothing new there) but we got up at 7 and were on the road by 7:40.  

Stopped at Lenwood/Flying J for gas and then back on the road.  An uneventful day of travel followed (that's what we like). MoHo did fantastically on the Baker Grade and all the other ups and downs we traversed today.   

We flew by LasVegas and were in Arizona for about 30 minutes, then beautiful Utah.  We are at the Willow Wind RV Park until Saturday.   We will be making the rounds, visiting Zion National Park and Bryce National Park and anything else that strikes our fancy.   This is a very nice RV Resort, we have FHU's, as well as cable TV and free WIFI!   I will post pics of the campground on another day.  

As I uploaded the pics from today, I had a few of my beautiful Lil Miss, so thought I'd include one here for your viewing pleasure.

 The Virgin River is rust colored.   I'm wondering if that is because of the spill that happened in Colorado a while back?
