Following on from the discussion about peoples behaviour in Yellowstone earlier in this thread, well here's proof you just can't fix stupid !!

Not only does the person approach the Bison, he then...

It's no problem Subman, it all contains good and useful info, but thanks for the consideration.

Dave.

Thanks, glad you enjoyed the report.

I think most of the dash cams are intended for continous loop recording as there prime purpose is as an accident witness. Some of them you can turn the...

I understand what you are saying Mark, but I better explain so that people who don't know me think I rely on Ethel for direction, it's far from the truth. The only time I tend to rely on GPS is when...

They are pretty cool for road trips and I payed under £20 for the camera, windscreen mount, USB cable and 12v power lead making them really good value. The only thing you have to purchase, if you...

Hi shirohniican, I'm glad it's helped with your planning.

For the trip we purchased a cheap, lightweight 'in car' video recorder that has a suction pad to attach it to the windcreen, just like...

In the report I mentioned a treat we had while in Yellowstone when we stumbled, quite by chance, across Castle Geyser as it was just starting to spout. This is an unpredictable Geyser, but it...

I know what you mean George, but it was about getting an extra hour in bed and even more so about one less hour spent hanging around in an airport which drives me nuts, especially when it's gonna be...

Thanks Mark.

I wouldn't have described it as warfare, people were reluctant to wait a little longer [which I can understand having got up at 4am, to get on the first shuttle] but in the end a few...

To Vegas.

Day 15 cont...... After eating and having the 'local' lad tell me that the only way back to Vegas would be to come back this way on ourselves through Moapa Valley and up to 115 or...

Back to Vegas.

This morning we wanted to get the bags sorted out packed and ready for the flight home tomorrow and the car cleaned ready for it's return, but first breakfast was calling so we...

I thought I would pop up a couple of photos up of classic Jags that we saw at the Grand canyon. They looked genuine and were in prestine condition, if they have had restoration work it was carried...

The North rim.

Our little cabin in the woods was basic yet cosy, it was quiet and relaxing, it was definitely our type of place. We walked the long way around the camp to the Inn to ease my back...

Yes I have to agree Pat, Utah 12 is a wonderful drive, especially when combined with UT24 around Capitol Reef.



Oh no ! I feel as though I missed out on something special ! We spent time and...

To Jacob Lake.

We turned onto Scenic 12, a wonderful Byway with so much to see and do along it's lenght, that we hope to come back another day and explore it in more depth. For now though we have...

Capitol Reef.

The last time we came to Capitol Reef we were just driving through and although we had planned to take the scenic drive we had arrived after sunset and it was too late, so this...

Red rock is calling.

We still had 270 miles to cover before we arrived at out hotel tonight, the Best Western Capitol Reef resort. We made our way through the towns of Roosevelt and Duchesne...

I love the look and idea of the vans John and are something I am still considering for a future trip, the appeal is certainly there. We only normally have 2-3 weeks on the road and mixed up with...

The scenery and knowing that we had lots of great things ahead helped push me on, it was the fear that it could all come to an end at any moment that was the worst. Hanging by a thread as they say !...

An eventful day to Capitol Reef

This morning at 5am I turned and stretched on the soft mattress and my back shot a pain through my spine like that of a dentist drill touching a nerve, only bigger...

Onward to Manila. UT.

We spent quite a bit of time looking around the various barns and outbuildings along Mormon Row. Our favourite was this barn just a short walk north from the junction of...

Thanks guys, I'm enjoying re-living the trip as I go. So many things come to mind as I work my way through the photos and diary I kept. [I'm looking forward to hearing more about your trip as well...

Time to leave Yellowstone.

We never set an alarm when on holiday, but we were both aware of the long day ahead to get to Manila UT tonight and both instinctively woke at 6:30am. This gave us an...

Come rain or shine, the RTA cap always travels with me. And yep, it's still going strong !

As the song says "Wherever I lay my hat, that's my home". lol

As we make our way up Geyser Hill the sun is setting and creating a glow on one side of us and big black clouds...
