Rest in the Lord and be willing to wait for Him. Psalm 37:7 (NLV)
Saturday, September 7 – Evanston, Wyoming to Sidney, Nebraska We left the motel at 6 am. Temperature was 46 degrees. This was the only morning that we didn’t get breakfast at the motel – because their breakfast didn’t start until 7 am. We stopped at a McDonalds and got breakfast sandwiches. Notice the windmills on […]
Friday, September 6 – Kanab, Utah to Evanston, Wyoming The view from our room in Kanab, Utah – about 7 am. This was the only motel on the trip where we noticed a Grab & Go bag – encouraging us to take things with us from the breakfast room. This bag contains a yogurt for […]
Thursday, September 5 – Bryce Canyon, Utah to Kanab, Utah This is what it looked like outside when we left Ruby’s Inn at Bryce Canyon at 7 am. The “building” in the center front is where we waited for the shuttle bus at Ruby’s Inn the day before. We backtracked a bit as we went […]
Wednesday, September 4 – A full day at Bryce Canyon The next shuttle took us to Sunset Point for another view of the canyon. I thought these rocks appeared to be sheer, but it may just have been the appearance with the sun shining on them. We asked a young couple from France to take […]
Wednesday, September 4 – A full day at Bryce Canyon This was our view as we walked around the corner of Ruby’s Inn for our free breakfast – with a voucher – because we have a room on this property. I love the history of this inn. In 1916, Reuben C. (Ruby) Syrett brought his […]
Tuesday, September 3 – Grand Junction, Colorado to Bryce Canyon, Utah This rest stop on Highway 89, near Circleville, Utah, featured one of Butch Cassidy’s childhood homes. After looking at this house, I decided they knew about “tiny houses” long before they were made popular in today’s world. I can’t imagine the Parker family lived […]
Tuesday, September 3 – Grand Junction, Colorado to Bryce Canyon, Utah I have so many pictures from Day 6 that I decided to divide this post into two parts. It was about 7:15 am when we left the motel in Grand Junction. We crossed into Utah at 7:43 am with 2,415 miles on our trip […]
Monday, September 2 (Labor Day) – Denver, Colorado to Grand Junction, Colorado We left the motel in Denver about 7:30 am, then stopped for fuel next to this pretty lavender at Sapp Brother’s Truck Stop which was beside to our motel. This is where Chaplain Rich serves (see previous trip post). Looking back on the […]
Sunday, September 1 – Hays, Kansas to Commerce City (Denver), Colorado We left the motel at 6:30 am – in the dark. Before long we were seeing this beautiful sunrise. The first series of pictures is the sunrise as I saw it from turning around in my seat and taking pictures out the back passenger […]
Saturday, August 31 – Jefferson City, Missouri to Hays, Kansas We left the motel in Jefferson City about 7:25 am. It was still cool and overcast, but by the time we reached Kansas City (above) the skies had cleared and the temperatures were in the mid-seventies. We began seeing lots of small sunflowers along the […]
Friday, August 30 – Indianapolis, Indiana to Jefferson City, Missouri Our motel driveway in south Indianapolis must have been facing east. This was our view as we pulled out onto the street. A truck passed us that was hauling little pigs – probably going to a farm to be fed and fattened. Notice the little […]
Thursday, August 29 – Home to South Indianapolis, Indiana When you travel with us you have to get up early. 🙂 We planned to get up at 3 am, but I woke up at 2:45 to hear Cerwin already walking around the house. We were on the road by 4:25 and already going through the […]
Tuesday, August 27 Deb asked if we could do brunch on her birthday – for her 2019 birthday gift. That worked for me. After I thought about it, I asked if she wanted to do manicures and pedicures first. I hadn’t had a pedicure since my birthday in February, and felt like having my hands […]
These are pictures that didn’t fit into any other posts during the month of August. I enjoyed being serenaded each morning by this cute little wren. We have an outside camera that picks up sounds – the reason I could hear it so clearly. A robin looking for breakfast. A blue jay enjoying the morning […]
Sunday, August 25 We could smell that something delicious was being grilled when we arrived at Jere and Kristen’s house. This was Ian’s choice of meat. Their chickens are doing a good job of providing eggs. Ian’s birthday balloon. I needed a new birthday photo for Ian, so did a few settings to try for […]
