On the road to Arizona

On Monday, April 11th, we headed for Arizona. We were a little slow getting underway, partly due to a low truck battery, low from being parked for months. It was a beautiful blue sky day, so we headed West on I-70. We stopped for lunch at a rest area outside Eagle Colorado, and ended up at Highline Lake State Park, near the Utah border. Highline Lake was listed as one of the top 100 campgrounds in the state of Colorado. We are not sure about the top 100 rating, but it is nice, an oasis in the desert. The campground has about 30 sites, and it is quiet. We did a little birdwatching, a little walking, and then cooked up dinner. A good day, we got about as far as we planned to get today. On Tuesday, we plan to head for southern Utah, perhaps Bluff. We will drive to Phoenix on Wednesday. Three days from Boulder to Arizona is a pretty relaxed schedule, but that is the way we planned it.
