Moab
Good morning, Moab!!
As noted in yesterday’s post, we stayed in Moab for today.
Oh…the furnace is working. I had wondered if it would work after moving the motorhome. I tested it after getting propane and gas in a South Fork, CO rest stop. It worked. It worked all night in Cortez and last night, here in Moab. I did some reading on altitude and furnaces and others have had similar experience…BUT 3 years ago, it had no issue at my folks. And the spot I tested in South Fork was at similar altitude of my folks house.
A mystery which will probably not be solved until Bob of Billy Bob’s RV in Kalispell has a look. Meanwhile, all is good and WARM in Wild Thing.
More morning in Moab.
Bear and I did an early run to a market for a few items.
Then I worked.
At lunchtime, we headed to Arches National Park. The entrance is 3.5 miles from the RV Park.
Lots of red rock…
…and more red rock.
My favorite, though was the view of La Sal Mountains – a wide open vista and snow covered mountains.
Red Rock.
Bear and I are lousy tourists. Especially in National Parks which are not pet friendly. But, we walked in 2 turnout spots – carefully.
And then, both of us having had enough of red rock, we turned around and went home to Auggie.
Barring bad weather, after a late morning meeting, we move 54 miles to Green River, Utah tomorrow (Thursday).

That is a lot of red rock! How cold is it there?
Margaret, it was 50F afternoons and upper 20’sF overnight. Although the elevation is only 4000 feet compared to 8300 at my folks, it is still high dessert – dry air that heats and cools quickly. I find it very pleasant, but you know how I like lower temperatures :) ! I see a lot of people in winter clothes … hoods and hats and the posture of being cold. According to a weather site, mid 50’s daytime and 20’s overnight is typical for November here on the valley floor and winter is mild with snow and colder temps in the surrounding mountains.
Liz. If you can, what type of work do you do?
Charles Curran, I am a computer programmer/custom software developer. I have done some smaller projects but my “bread and butter” is as a “hired gun” programmer for a department of UCLA.
The UCLA programming team is 3 of us: Manager is an employee of UCLA located on campus in Los Angeles, me in Montana (or wherever the motorhome travels) and the third is in Nashville, TN area. The Nashville team member is, like me, a consultant.
