A LONG DAYS DRIVE

 When we started out this morning from Jackson we drove through mile upon mile of flat sage brush and very else. At one point Ian said 'there's not even a tree to have a pee', not that he would have wanted to anyway as it was in the minuses again this morning. When we did get to a town the toilets were closed for the season. We've discovered this a lot as everything starts closing down on the 1st October for winter. We finished up having a hot chocolate in a bizarre cafe, it must have been there for 100 years however it did have toilets and then continued on. When we arrived at Rock Springs the landscape suddenly changed to the most amazing canyons and we drove through these for the rest of the trip to Price  (Utah) which is where we are tonight. The road was very windy as we drove up and down mountains and along rims of these canyons. The colours are fantastic but unfortunately there weren't a lot of opportunities to stop for photos.
