Not a whole lot to do there, but it was very pretty and there were bodies of water for me to jump in.  University of Western Colorado is there, so it&#8217;s kind of a neat little college town, but very small.  I knew that 50 was closed right by the RV park, but I thought there was a detour that would only add 1.5 hours.  Unfortunately, that detour was under construction and closed to any vehicle over 50&#8242; (I&#8217;m 57.5&#8242;), so I had to turn around and basically go all the way to Denver.  If 50 had been open it would have been a 3.5 hour travel day.  If the detour had been open it would have been a 5 hour travel day.  Instead it was an 11 hour travel day, the longest I&#8217;ve ever done by a lot. I was dead tired when we finally pulled in to Moab.  Next we stopped in SLC for a couple of days.  I took a lot of pics of the mountains around SLC, but none of them really came out all that great, so enjoy some Mormon temple stuff.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images
