Nov 5 morning
Nov 6 morning, lots of color, quiet morning. The day didn't end so quiet.
Nov 6 evening- we tried to squeeze in an additional night before the arrival of a front the next day. The weather forecast looked just fine. Worried about rain here, but it was quiet, few sprinkles.... Luckily we packed chairs, etc inside the car before going to sleep.
It didn't look too bad we thought and we went to bed early. At 10 pm the wind picked up and the gusts were so intense, that we had to move the Jeep to block some wind and tie the tent to the Jeep. Didn't even think of taking any photos. We fell asleep, then woke up at midnight after being sandblasted inside the tent. Closed all windows even though it was very warm, we fell asleep again, kind of.... We could hear the wind come howling up the nearby canyon before it hit the tent, whoa..... During a few quiet minutes in the dark the next morning, we quickly took the tent down, tossed it all in the Jeep and got the heck out of there. Later that morning the wind gusts were intense, howling under the roof box, it was not a fun ride to Moab. We sat out the front in comfort in Moab.
Nov 11- evening, the Needles CG
Nov 12 - morning in The Needles CG, plenty of color again
Nov 13 morning
Nov 15 - We changed plans, didn't continue to AZ, but decided to head back for 1 week to the Needles CG and then drive back home. In an attempt to stay awake we ventured out that evening and discovered benches and lots of them, perfect for star gazing on an ice cold night. Winter Parka, many layers, extra winter pants, a little Titos, all good
Awesome evening.
