May 28-29, 2020 Green River, Utah to Grand Junction, Colorado

96 and sunny today. Too hot.

We are now parked at Green River State Park, Green River, Utah. It is a lovely green, shady park. We got one of the last places, it is pretty reserved up. It is on the Green River. It is a popular river to boat down to the Colorado River, Cataract Canyon and Lake Powell and this is one of the put in spots.

Welcome to Green River,  a propane tank painted like a watermelon. This are is known for it's melons. A mural of a boater on the river, Old fashioned motel sign. The sensor for our outdoor temperature is in one of the bays, it was 102 down there. It was actually only 96 outside, which feels about the same to me. Another mural. Sunset tonight.

 Before we left Green River John found an acceptable RV wash and washed the bus. He is happy now.  Welcome to Colorado!! 

Palisade, Colorado is known for it's peach orchards, vineyards and beautiful views of the Book Cliffs.  We are camped at the Palisade Basecamp RV resort. Nice park, but a little short on shade. It was 95 degrees today. I swear they only predicted into the 80's. Wishful thinking. 

The RV park is right on the Colorado River and between peach orchards, vineyards and a dispensary.

Book Cliffs. We visited with Jimjim and Martha at their campsite at the James Robb state park right on a lake.  

Martha cooked us a yummy chicken dinner. Jimjim and I toasting.
