Our last day in Goblin Valley...


This random plant was growing in the middle of no where, with nothing else around it.

After completing our last hike, we were driving back to camp and Norm looked to her right and asked me 'Is that someone on top of that truck?' and of course I agreed with her. It turned out to be two young couples that were camping and accidentally left their truck lights on and their battery was dead. Being sure I had jumper cables and tearing everything from the back of the truck, I realized the cables were in the trunk of the Model T back in Arizona. So we gave one of the guys a lift to the visitor center to borrow a set. On the way we passed this vehicle stuck in the muck. It was not there when Norm and I drove in and she could not stop laughing about it for some reason. I guess it has something to do with mud, which she never seems to pass up when hiking or riding. Well, we just got to the top of the next hill and there were the owners of the truck walking toward the V.C. all sunburned and hot. So we stopped and gave them a ride the rest of the way and when we got there, Norm apologized for making fun of their truck, in between more laughter. It is not often that you get a chance to help another person, let alone two in one day! It was a great way to wrap up our time in Goblin Valley.
