Wednesday, October 26, 2011 (Archview RV Park, Moab, Utah)

This area is supposed to get about 9 or 10 inches of precipitation annually...well, I think we received it all at once...it poured through the night!  And it still wasn’t very nice out...a good morning to spend inside.
I worked on our blog while Steve watched “The Big Red One” a long war movie that he had recorded.  About mid-morning I decided I had better get the laundry done, so I headed over to the laundry room...3 machines...3 loads, perfect. 
It was around 1:30 when we decided to go into Moab and pick up our quads...they were sitting out front waiting for us and after going in and paying for the service, we loaded them into the truck.  It was cold and windy out with a skiff of snow on top of the canyons (where we had been camping a few days before) but at least it wasn’t raining.
Here is a picture of the Colorado River taken yesterday...
...and here is a picture of the river after all the rain we had last night...

After stopping to pick up some groceries, we headed back to the trailer.  We had a pretty uneventful night watching TV.  The weather is supposed to improve tomorrow...mainly sunny with a high of 51F...that’s only about 10C...definitely a lot cooler than we had been experiencing over the past week but we’ll take the sunshine!  With the lows predicted to be 27F/-3C, Steve decided to fill the trailer with water then put the hoses and filters away. We are looking forward to going for an ATV ride tomorrow...burrrr.
