Thursday, August 22, 2019 Glen Canyon, Utah

The land and sky were beautiful as I drove through Utah.

Eventually, I arrived at Glen Canyon National Recreation Area. It was created by a dam on the Colorado River in Arizona. The dam also created Lake Powell. 

To give you a sense of perspective, I took a picture of my black truck and white trailer against the water and the cliffs.

After setting up my campsite, I went kayaking since I brought my kayak along.

The water was cold and deep! 

I went exploring!

The rock formations were really interesting!

Look at that rock balancing on the top of that cliff!

See that whitish lizard on the rock? I saw hundreds of them. They were about 3 inches long and they could run straight up the vertical cliff!

See the three black ducks swimming on the water?

There is a Great Blue Heron standing on the shoreline. Can you find it?

See the shadows starting to form? It's late afternoon.

It's sunset.

I made a campfire, but it was still dark enough to see the Milky Way, shooting stars and hundreds of other stars!

The next morning I got up and went kayaking at dawn. 

I'll let the next several photographs speak for themselves.
