7,777 feet in the air

Drink Driving permitted in Arizona

Finally, after spending over a week getting our rig ready for the long journey ahead, we hit the road from Prescott AZ.Before we left, we stopped at Lloyd's Drive-In liquors to get all stocked up for the long drive to Utah. It was conveniently located right next door to Whole Foods, so besides the liquor, we were able to stock up on organic fruits and vegetables, raw cheese and other assorted natural goodies to balance the equation.

Sleeping under a canopy of trees, and millions of stars at night!

We arrived at our campground at Bryce. It's a lovely place to spend a few days. We chose a KOA kampground for our first experience, and it's lovely. It's surprisingly quiet here. Even with other campers around, the peacefulness is stunning. We plugged the RV in and have full electric service, running water and sewage, And good, quality high-speed Internet. Although, there is no cell phone service out here in the middle of nature. The boys are loving the adventure. Tons more new smells to check out.

Stunning rock formations

After getting up and participating in the camp's pancake breakfast, we took off for Bryce. Bryce Canyon is 7,777 feet above sea level; so there's something magical going on here. 

The National Park Service has a great deal for "seniors." They define seniorship as someone over the age of 55. So, I qualify! It's $10 for a lifetime pass to all National Parks, and since we will be visiting many National Parks in the months ahead, this is a super deal. At Bryce Canyon, hiked through the Sunrise and Sunset area of the park amazed at the formations. 

Is this a  big dog park?

Bebop was excited to see a whole new way of looking at the world. 

We'll be camped here for a few days. We'll be exploring many of the other amazing areas of Southern Utah in the days to come.
