We awoke to a cold and windy day. Our perfect campsite overlooking the lake was no longer perfect. So we packed up and moved on.

I am still suffering this crappy cold and am very congested. Today my ears completely blocked up as well as my nose.

It was solar eclipse day today and even though we are a little bit over from it I thought there might be a dimming effect. But there was nothing.

We drove about an hour to the cathedral state park where they have electric hookups so we can run our heater. The temperature will be dropping to Minus 2 degrees overnight, and this isn’t helping our colds. And they have showers.

Cathedral gorge is amazing with intricate designs in the rocks like gothic cathedrals . Except it’s all naturally formed. We explored a couple of slot canyons and these were really neat, some going for miles! I was a bit worried about snakes and scorpions in the narrow bits.

There is so much to explore here but my cold is getting worse, not better. So we opted for an early night. Mike is now a bit snotty.
