Roadtrip to Monticello


Made our way down to Grand Junction before heading out along the dual carriageway with Matt in charge of the vehicle. She's pretty much packed to gunwhales with our luggage, but the ride is good. Some are feeling a little under the weather, the warm beers weren't exactly hitting the right spot, but the views soon got the boys heads up. She's certainly a big country out there in middle USA. Made the turnoff down a backcountry road at Cisco, blink and you miss this town of broken cars and buildings, sure looked like we were heading into hickville land.




By this time PC was driving and the lads were gripping the seats on every corner, he ensured we weren't going to cross that centreline thats for sure. The fact we were running the right hand side in the ruts and brushing the wing mirrors on the local shrubbery ensured we had eyes peeled wide open!!






We basically followed the Colorado all the way to Arches Park, where we paid our ten dollars to go and see the views on top of the Mesa. Damn impressive it was too, even Lisa got really excited, only wish Lardro would leave her alone when she's excited.




We've stopped off in a little town called Montichello, Utah. Couple of rooms in the local truckers motel are all we require. Have feed ourselves down at the local diner where the waitress out did Eddie in the size stakes. Tassies already renamed the place Buttfuck in Utah, bet he doesn't mention that one to the locals or he may find himself relaxing with the local redneck.
