Laughlin and Utah

Andy and Terry have a little extra time on their hands, so Andy wants to go for a short camping trip. Terry wants to go play with the slot machines.
.
They figure out a way to do both.


First they drive out to Laughlin, Nevada for a two day stay at the Edgewater Casino on the Colorado River.


Terry gets to play on her slot machines and she wins a little extra spending money.

Next, Andy drives them up to southern Utah.

They plan to stay at Zion National Park, but it's a bit too crowded and there is no room to camp out, so they continue on to the mountains north of Zion.

Andy wants to try out a nice place called Duck Creek.

They find a nice campground up at Duck Creek with hardly anybody else around. It's a very attractive place in the woods.






After an overnight stay at Duck Creek they head toward Bryce Canyon National Park, elevation 8,000 feet.



They have not been here in five years, so it's time for another visit.











The unusual scenery here is always fantastic.



.
They take a ride all around the place on the free park buses.

The weather turns cool and the weatherman predicts rain storms. After spending a night camping in a bit of rain, Andy and Terry decide to return home to wait for drier weather.

.

They have a long pleasant drive back home. The weather is not hot and the scenery is very interesting.
.
They make a stop in downtown Las Vegas so Terry can get her hands on the slot machines for one hour. She wins a few dollars and they continue on home.
.







They do not stop at Buffalo Bill's at the state border because they will be coming back here at the end of the month.
