Just before breakfast, Nancy came back from Moe’s morning walk. She went down the start of a trail and discovered that from the rim, you can see the Hovenweep Ruins.
We are breaking camp when Peter and Sarah drive by, saying goodbye. They are headed to their next campground; we will soon be heading to ours.
We will be crossing the border into Colorado, heading southeast. I see a road sign for Four Corners. I suggest we go off route to see the corner boundaries of Colorado, Utah, Arizona, and New Mexico. It is only five miles away. This was a big letdown, a tourist trap. The corner marker is surrounded by vendors selling worthless crap presented as art. Moe was not allowed in the circus around the boundary marker. I went back to sit in the car with Moe.
Back on the road, we soon enter Arizona, and then we cross into New Mexico.
We are now in our campsite on the rim of Navajo Dam. This is a much busier place than we left. We have a nice site with water and electric and a shade spot for my hammock. There is a shower here. I am relaxing and comfortable with four days of grime scrubbed from my skin. Tomorrow promises to be a busy day.
