Month: September 2013

Had a great day, didn’t do much.

Took the tram/bus up to the lodge and Jean did some shopping.  I worked at staying out of the sun.

The other day while I was setting out in front of the motor home watching the sun set I thought I could see an arch which is part of display at the museum.  They have a sign with an arrow pointing to an arch way up on the hill side.  Well the other day I discovered you can see the arch from our camp site.

Can you see the arch in this picture?

Ok, does the arrow help?

Here’s the same arch 300mm lens.

And for those that see the arch, does this help?

Day of numbers:
It was 97 yesterday
Going to be 100 today
This afternoon a sandstone rock in the shade at least 1/2 of it in the ground was 75°
Same type of rock in the sun 100°
Red colored asphalt road 141°

This morning Hank and I walked up the river path to the junction.
Couple of morning pictures:

When we got here on Monday I got this glass of water out of the river.
It was full of muddy water on Monday.
Each glass of water going down the valley has this much dirt in it.

Great evening for setting out and watching stars last night, it was at least 10:30 when I went on. 

Today has been mostly around camp reading and playing IPad games.  Hank and I went for a walk onto town this morning.

Site B006
Thunder shower in the afternoon but still 95+.

Vacation —

Last night we had lightening and heavy rain from 2:00 – 3:00 a.m. We don’t get much lightening at home so it was neat to see the sky light up.

Hank and I went for a short walk this morning.

This was my afternoon view from our campsite. 
Goal is to do nothing of any value for the next two weeks.
