Not much of a sunrise
We wanted to sleep in this morning, but decided we would rather get up early so we could watch the sunrise. Unfortunately, Mother Nature covered the mountain with a cloud.
We took a beautiful ride to the North Rim of the Black Canyon of the Gunnison along Highway 92. Six miles before we got to the park, the road turned to gravel. This road was better than some paved roads that we have been on.
We really enjoyed watching the rock climbers at the Balanced Rock overlook. (I can 't imagine wanting to do that.) We had a nice picnic lunch overlooking the canyon, then continued our journey to Delta and Montrose before making it back to the campground.
We kept skirting the rain. We got lucky.
Ominous looking clouds
We saw 4 deer as we left the campground this morning at 10:30 am. They looked like they wanted to go with us. We saw a total of 7 deer today, one was a nice buck.
I washed a load of clothes when we returned. It was the most beautiful view that I have ever seen from the door of the laundry room.
We were gonna grill some pork chops, sit by a fire, and call it an early night. Mother Nature again changed our plans with a thunderstorm. We cooked the pork chops inside, turned on the heater, and watched the satellite TV. But we did call it an early night.
