Our camp the last two days was at the foot of 11,928 foot Mount Nebo. Then our route took us through the valley along the Nebo Range then the Wasatch Range. The rain we got at OK RV over the weekend blanketed the mountains with snow.
I don't know how low the snow level came, but at least it wasn't down to the level of the interstate. We were in and out of occasional rain showers all day, but no snow. Psychologically, it was a chilly drive seeing all of that fresh snow. I was thinking that the high 90s in Phoenix was sounding much better than continuing to head north...
We are spending the night at Lottie-Dell RV Camp in Snowville, Utah. We stayed here on our way north last year. It is an interesting place -- there is no one in the office. Prices (with Escapee discount) are posted on the wall. There are registration forms that you fill out; put them in one of the stack of envelopes with your cash or check; and insert the envelope through a slot in the wall. Strictly the honor system! Then you go pick out a site and get yourself parked.
Shortly after we had gotten settled a fast-moving thunderstorm came through. The thunder was close enough and loud enough to make me jump. It rained and hailed furiously for a few moments, then the sun came out again. Now it is a lovely evening.
