On the road in Utah...






Sam's tired! National parks are exhausting when you have to stay in the truck and don't get to hike on the trails. Here we are at Capitol Reef with Navajo Dome in the background. When we got to Springdale near Zion, there were plenty of dog-friendly things to do.
The hotel has a walk, field, and river on the property. There's a dog park down the road.

Plenty of gorgeous scenery, though the drive to the parks from Grand Junction isn't very inspiring. From Capitol Reef to Bryce to Zion, fall was in full color. The cottonwoods were bright yellow, shrubs were bright orange and red, and grasses were just about every color, from bright green to purple. With the red rocks behind the foliage, autumn was at its best.
