Moab 23/05/13

Another cruisy day around Moab area - we headed out down scenic byway 279 to Potash along the lower Colorado river and took in some of the ancient Indian writing on the rocks.  Also a popular place to do abseiling.

Later we cruised the opposite scenic byway 128 along the upper Colorado river out to the Red Rock Lodge & Castle Valley Winery where we did some tasting.  The lodge is upmarket and sits right on the river with a restaurant overlooking the river bend & cabins along the river edge - very nice.  We visited the Moab Museum of Film & Western Heritage - lots of memorabilia from films gone by such as Thelma & Louise.

 

We went downtown only to find another hot rod behind us, so we pulled over to chat and he took us round to meet a friend who might have a part we were wanting.  Turned out the friend knew two people Daryl knows......small world!

 

Above is Dave who we met downtown with his 1946 Mercury Woody and the yellow 1937 hotrod belongs to Rod, the friend who turned out to be a harley riding, hot rodding Chaplin........nice guy.
