Me too. And the other photos of Utah. The scenery is just amazing.

After we get back to the hotel we eat and then saddle up and head west over the Boulder Plateau and into Capitol Reef.

In Hanksville before we camp Django fixes the dragging front rotor that the "doctor" apparently misaligned somehow.

Once done we leave the bikes in the RV campground and head out to camp under the stars with a fire. As it happened it was somewhat cloudy and we did get a few sprinkles overnight but nothing noteworthy. Here ends day three.

There is a recent Civil War era western movie called "Django [Unchained]".

David, 6/26 looks good so far. Would you mind if I came 1 day earlier? Just asking, my plans for the next days are still a little shaky.
