Utah 2019: Days 6-7

May 6th-7th, 2019
Torrey, Utah

Day 6

On Day 6, we checked out of the Moab Valley Inn and headed southwest for Torrey, Utah. Our destination for the night was the Skyridge Inn, an award-winning bed and breakfast located near the entrance to Capitol Reef National Park. After checking in, and with an ounce of energy remaining, we headed off to Sunset Point. Situated right near the entrance to the park, Sunset Point is a wonderful location from which to watch the sun set.

In a stroke of luck, the best room at the Skyridge Inn was available for the evening, so the proprietor upgraded us to that room at no cost to us. With our own personal hot tub outside the room, it was a beautiful spot to take in the unspoiled landscape.

Day 7

On Day 7, we reluctantly left our master suite at the Skyridge Inn, toured Capitol Reef National Park and then down-scaled a bit to the T Lazy 7 Ranch cabins in Torrey, Utah. There is nothing much to speak of in Torrey — and I mean nothing — but it is conveniently located between Bryce Canyon and Zion National Parks, our destinations for the next few days.

Music

Chris Barber is an English bandleader and trombonist. He's been performing since the 1950s, right up through at least 2017. For the record, Alison cannot stand his music, or any jazz for that matter. I, however, love it and can easily listen to it all day.

Here are some of the photos we took yesterday and today.
