August 23, 2026-Ultimate Utah Adventure Day 2

(Click for today's pictures) 

Marley was not the most cooperative last night. Robby moved her kennel to a much more comfortable spot, but I guess it wigged her out. She fussed enough that he took her our and moved it back to the regular spot. Of course, she quickly figured our her ticket out and fussed until Robby relented.

I was so tired, that I was having a problem keeping up with what was going on. I could have let her bark for a bit longer since I was sleeping so well, but that might have disturbed the kids. Marley ended up sleeping with us, and she did very well. However, when we leave her during the week to explore, she will have to be in her kennel, and she probably won't like it!

We left the parking lot around 8 or 8:30 this morning. I'm not really sure what time it was, but things went incredibly smoothly today. We drove, we stopped for gas or for driver potty breaks, and we just drove some more over and over again. We did stop at one gas station and ate McDonalds ice cream while we let the dogs run in a dog park. 

Since we left yesterday, that changed the original stop that Robby had for tonight. Then throughout the day, he kept adjusting where he wanted to stop and finding new places for us. You can't just sleep anywhere so he has to do some research on each location. We have ended up at a little campground in Seibert, Colorado for the night.

It is little, but it is perfect for the night. We are right off the interstate, but just far enough away. Our site is a pull through so we didn't have to unhook the car, plus there was even a dog park. The girls took some pictures of the far off sunset, before we ate our barbecue for supper. 

After eating, we walked the dogs one more time. Then the kids and I played a game before we all settled in our beds. 

College kid update: Reagan was very happy to get back to her church in Arkadelphia. The boys both went to another church this morning. Anderson's monitor isn't working, so he is going to have to get a new one of those. And Graham said that so far school feels like summer camp, and he is having a blast.
