Day 66

 

Thursday we say our goodbyes to our son and  his family at Hill Air Force Base FAM-Camp. Friday morning we head south towards home.

I decided to try a new overnight place to spend the first night on the way home, Camp Lutherwood. The Passport America book listed campground location at the junction of US 89 and Utah Highway 20, behind the state road  maintenance facility. Where there was a camping sign so we turn in only to end up on a narrow dirt road and another sign stating Camp Lutherwood 2 miles. We were committed now as there was no place to turn the motorhome around. Some 2 miles plus later we did arrive at Camp Lutherwood. We were the only motorhome so there was no problem in getting a space.

Combining this blunder with two others, traveling on Utah’s Pioneer Days 3 day weekend, which is a bigger celebration in Utah than the 4^th of July and having to be on I-17 between Flagstaff and Phoenix on a Sunday, we quickly decided to spend 2 nights here instead of the one planned.

The elevation is over 7800 feet, it is cool and it is a pretty location with lots of deer feeding right by the coach in the evening. Last night low was 57.
