Friday September 15 to Torrey, UT

Beautiful day again, left Ely about 9:00. We drove an hour on Rt 50, over scenic passes, to the Border Inn and Casino. We'd known this place from previous visits. On the border of Nevada and Utah, in the middle of nowhere, it has everything: C-store, campground, restaurant, motel, casino, everything. We enjoyed a nice breakfast before heading across the desert, leaving Rt 50 and taking the "scenic route", Rt 21.

After one crosses I-15 the roads go into the mountains, over 8000' with great views. When you get close to Torrey, you begin to see the beautiful red cliffs.

Forgettable dinner at a Mexican place next to the forgettable Noor Hotel. Tomorrow we continue east to Durango. Our day will start going through Capital Reef National Park, one of our favorites.

Adventure Awaits

 Wednesday September 13, 2023 We haven't been on a "real" road trip for a while, and September is a good month to go somewhere...
