Today we left Escalante State Park in a long line of white
chicks following our leader’s big red truck up and down the mountains to Bryce
Canyon. Our Casita was a lady all
the way – no swinging or swaying her hips while going around sharp curves, no
racing ahead of others downhill.
She responds well to gentle instructions. It is chilly at night and the furnace, thermostatically
controlled, cycles on and off as needed keeping Patt and me cozy. The refrigerator is running on propane
since we do not have electricity and snacks are there at arm’s reach. No running about the campsite with a
flashlight in the dark – the flushie is there too! She can be a trifle obstinate while hitching until we learn
to do it in correct sequence – and then she is most cooperative. This just might be my last Casita
trip. If so, she is making it a
memorable one! Truly a home away
