Be careful what you wish for.

You know the old adage, Be careful what you wish for...? Yeah, well after an uncommonly cool and rainy, snowy spring, I was ready for hot, summer weather. So today, leaving St. George and riding to Page, Arizona, we encountered it. I bet it was 110 degrees in that southern area today. Talk about a group of hot and sweaty HOGS! You could almost see the steam rise off the engine and the pavement! It was beautiful, though. I had never been to the North Rim of the Grand Canyon--gorgeous views! Groups of riders left this morning at various times and took various routes. We rode with about a dozen other bikes, mostly from our chapter group. Gas stations were almost comical, with all the maneuvering of those machines as we met up with other groups. I know I couldn't have done it, but I'm observing--especially the women drivers--very closely. We're here at Wahweap tonight, and will travel to Durango, CO tomorrow. I can't believe that I'm at Lake Powell without getting on a boat or going waterskiing. And the temps are perfect for that!! It was a lovely day, and my stress level has gone down considerably! And I took bunches of pictures today. We're looking forward to a great ride tomorrow.
