We found something in between two very famous places. This is how it goes on the road sometimes. It’s not just blank spaces between highlights. Not just city airport to white clouds to city airport. This is why the road is better, the car is better.
I left the epic space of Monument Valley reluctantly. It was late morning and we wanted to get to Moab and explore a bit before finding a motel. Our official destination was Arches National Park. So we headed North on Highway 163 to get to Hwy 191 for the 3 hour trip. We found Mexican Hat about 22 miles up the road in Utah. Population 31.
Then we saw this as we headed north. Not sure what the official name of this formation is. I’d be willing to bet there are some unofficial names for it.
We didn’t stop at the Twin Rocks Cafe, but it looks promising.
I love the places in between the destinations. This is where the best surprises are found. Hope you get out there soon.
