About Us

United Kingdom
Couple of retirees who really enjoy travel - particularly roadtrips to the deserts and prairies. We suspect we must be nomads as characterised by Richard Grant as RV resident retiree nomads in his book "Ghost Riders"

Day 18 _ Scenic Byways




Left Nephi heading South on the byways - it looks easy on our (old) map, but we got lost a couple of times and had to do U-turns. We eventually found our way through from Salina (known for its salt deposits would you believe?) to Sevier and continued South. The photos show the Big Rock Candy Mountain - looks more impressive in real life - just S. of Sevier. We eventually had a brief early afternoon stop at Panguitch, where we had coffee and pie at the Flying M Restaurant (www.flyingm.com). Pity we weren't going to be in the area for dinner, it looked like good home cooking. After coffee we came off the 89 and went on the 143 West through Dixie National Forest (pass summit at 10,420ft.), followed by a short stretch on the I15 to Cedar City where we are staying overnight. Looking forward to our drive NW tomorrow to Green River.
