Day 17 - Destination Page, AZ

JJ

     When will I learn to “…let the day’s own trouble be sufficient unto the day…”?  What a beautiful drive - from the green of the trees, grass, and mountains of southern Utah into the red hills and sand of Page.  And, not one single issue with snow.  However there was wind, which forced me to reduce my speed to about 10 miles below the posted limit.  Not a huge problem as there wasn’t a lot of traffic; however there was a fifth wheel that caught up with me and wanted to pass me but the highway and traffic were such that it was impossible for about 20 minutes.  When I finally saw that he would have enough time and highway to get all the way around me and my 26 footer with his much longer fifth wheel, I slowed down to about 40 so he could come around.  As he did so, I recognized the couple that had been camped across the way from me at the RV park we had both just left!  About 20 minutes later I came up on a stop sign where they had pulled off the road in preparation for making the same turn I did.  I just smiled and waved, they waved back, and I hoped that they would be there long enough that they wouldn’t have to pass me again.  They must have as that was the last I saw of them.  A couple of other items of note for the drive was passing what was billed as the Childhood Home of Butch Cassidy.  No opportunity to stop, but there were a few cars out front.   The other was a hand-painted sign on the side of the road advertising a “Private Pond  You catch them, we cook them.”                                                                           SDG 

Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.”  Matthew 6:34  NIV
