Day 4: Mountains, Deserts and Dust
Published 21 August 2007
Hi! You've stumbled upon a blog post by a guy named Ryan. I'm not that guy anymore, but I've left his posts around because cool URIs don't change and to remind me how much I've learned and grown over time.
Ryan was a well-meaning but naïve and priviledged person. His views don't necessarily represent the views of anyone.
Today was our longest day of driving, Denver Colorado to Zion National Park, Utah. Twelve hours, two audiobooks a book and seven CD's later, we've made it to an amazing desert landscape. Within fifteen minutes of arriving at the B&B, I saw a bat, a frog and a six-point white-tail.
The drive was gorgeous, weaving through the mountains like a German car commercial, and as pretty light on humanity. We began to get a bit loopy, and started dreaming up consipracy theories about the trucks datrting betwee factoy farms along the way.
I'm falling asleep now, so hopefully you're enjoingt the shorter work.
