Day 16 – Travel Day - Rawlins WY to Hill AFB UT – 286 miles through WY and UT


It was a pretty travel day, no rain or strong winds. We left Rawlins at 8:45. The scenery was rather boring until we got to Green River WY, and then it was gorgeous. We stopped at the Utah Welcome Center which was one of the prettiest views of any welcome center ever. We had some lunch and then drove through more beautiful scenery to Hill AFB UT, just south of Ogden U. We arrived at 2:30 and got all set up. It is a decent campsite and only $14 a night. We have a beautiful view and a tree, so we are happy.

At 5 we went out hunting a cigar store for Bill which we found thanks to the internet. Then it was on to Costco for some cashews, shorts, and some great tomatoes. Lastly we went to Walmart for water refills, but the water machine was broken. We bought a couple of gallons of water and some food items and came back to the RV.

Now we are figuring out what we want to do with our two days in Salt Lake. Tomorrow we plan to go to Temple Square and look at the pretty Mormon buildings and maybe get in to an organ recital.
