On my trip back from the East Coast over the summer while I was on The Last Captain, I pitted in Moab, Utah on the way. I was only there for an hour to get breakfast and to try and bring back some memories of filming here in 1988. It was my first location film and it was called 'Sundown: Vampires in retreat' It was terrible, but it did have a big cast including David Carradine. But nothing sparked any memories. The scenery however did spark an interest in maybe staying here for a longer visit.
Which is where we are now. Tomorrow, the Queen and I head out for points east. We are stopping at the Grand Canyon, Monument Valley (See story about Stagecoach) and finally in Moab. The more I look at places to go, the more I realize I needed to plan a longer trip. What are pit stops should have turned into longer stays. And one place i desperately wanted to see was not the place I had actually planned to stop at. I planned to go to Dead Horse Point when I should have been planning to go to Horseshoe Bend. Aargh. Now, with a little rejiggering, we are going to both.
You people all have timetables for you trips for every hour, don't you? Don't you?

As a matter of fact, my anger does keep me warm
