Utah

There are so many things we have to say about how crazy California makes us; I don’t know where to start. Maybe I shouldn’t. At any rate, getting up and leaving at six am on a holiday is a great way to avoid LA Basin traffic. We made a smooth escape. We survived the mandated speed differential. Cars 70 (they go 80), and trucks and vehicles towing, 55. We drove 55. Saw diesel for $5.19 in California. Paid $4.84 for it just across the state line in Primm, Nevada. Spent the night in Mesquite.

Through St George, Cedar City, Beaver, Richfield, Salina, and across the badlands in Utah. The San Rafael Swell; absolutely nothing for a hundred miles. I can show you. I took a picture.

Settled in for the night in Green River.
