Possibly my last evening in Cedar City.
Sorry for not having much of a change in my status to report! However, if there is a
place to get stuck, this is a good one. The rest has been very beneficial,
this is a pleasant community and Utah is a very nice state.
I was told today that I could have my car by noon tomorrow! We shall
see...
This morning, after stopping by the shop, I drove north on Route 15, exiting
in the town of Parowan. To the west of town was a place called Parowan
Gap, with many fine examples of petroglyphs. After doing a little hiking
and climbing (there was a neat cave,) I drove back into town and did a little
shopping. Otherwise, I relaxed and read a bit.
Routes traveled today: 15 - an unnamed dirt road - 130
Watch for my report tomorrow night (if I have access) to see what
happens! Thank you again for reading the page...Igor
Hotel: Econo Lodge
