Greetings from Salt Lake City. What? Why in the world are we in SLC when we should be in Wyoming? Simple answer: a dreaded check engine light. That, plus the fact that Pamela wasn't reacting well to the higher altitudes and we thought that going up to 8000 feet wasn't the best of ideas. So--we called ahead to a Mercedes Sprinter repair place in SLC area and decided to divert here. We will miss Yellowstone, but can always go back or swing through on the way West.

| Our Route Today - South and East (NOT North and East) |
It was a very pleasant drive, but too much driving once again. Today we had some more rain, but also some sunshine and warmer temperatures. In fact it was in the 80's for much of the trip and 84 when we arrived in Salt Lake City. We are right in the middle of downtown SLC on West North Temple, but it is a well shaded park with Wi-Fi and lots more.
We are changing our itinerary to give us more time and will skip Yellowstone going East so we can have more time in Wyoming before the big Escapees Rally in Gillette. We will see the Mercedes Sprinter repair place tomorrow morning, but will probably spend another night here at a very nice KOA in SLC. We will then have some short days of driving through Wyoming and points East.
We will include some photos of the trip so far in a later blog. It is getting late, and tomorrow is an early morning for us retired folks. Send us good thoughts about an easy fix for the RV engine--it can't hurt!
Thanks for visiting,
Neil and Pamela
