We are halfway between Salt Lake City, Utah and Denver, Colorado (staying the night in Vernal, UT) heading east to see friends in the Denver area.  Yippee!  I’m ready for some fun, familiar faces and Zoey will have some kids to play with!  ,

We spent a night camping by the Great Salt Lake out on Antelope Island night before last.  It was a very nice view across the lake to the mountains beyond and Joe had fun floating in the salt lake but the bugs were a bit much for us.  We had to kill about 100 mosquitoes in the trailer before we could settle in for the night and sleep with the trailer closed up tight.  And the Great Salt Lake was very interesting – I had never thought about it before but no fish can live in it.  Instead it’s full of tiny red brine shrimp that can live in the salt water.

We had planned to head down to Zion National Park after SLC but we both decided it was time to start charting a course for home. Plus Denver’s got a world class skatepark that Joe plans on spending some time at.  I think we are traveled out, at least for a while.
