Run Forest Run!

We drove to Monument Valley today to take a jeep ride through the valley.  It is best to take the jeep tour because they go places that the public can't drive through.  This is the road in the film Forest Gump.  A lot of movies have been filmed in this area.  It is such a unique landscape, I will let the pictures speak for themselves..although the pictures never do it justice.

Bluff, UT

Hello again from Utah!  Although we have already been thru Utah, we are back and on a route that we have not previously traveled.

Even though Bluff is a very small town, it has a really great museum/fort.  The Mormons were the first to settle in Bluff and they have replica houses for each founding family with a recording in each house that tells all about the family that lived there.  It was so informative.  They also have a really good film depicting the first settlers journey to the area.

We caravanned up to Goosenecks State Park.  No hookups, but an beautiful place.

Then we caravanned up the Moki Dugway to Muley Point.  At Muley Point we could overlook The Valley of the Gods.  It was so beautiful and the Moki Dugway was a beautiful drive up the side of the mountain.

The road went all the way to the top of this mountain.

The reward at the top of Muley Point.  Hiawatha kept saying "come away from the edge"  There are no fences anywhere!

Then we traveled on to Natural Bridges National Monument

 We found a nice place to have our lunch with our friend Jennifer

It was a fun, scenic day!
