FISHLAKE STATE PARK in UTAH

Our Saturday began bright and sunny, with a forecast of clouds and heavy rains at times!!  What a combination!!  The view from our door did not look bad.

So we decided that we were not sitting at home another day.  We began with breakfast in Richfield at Little Wonder Cafe on Main Street.  The decor was clocks all over the walls and sitting around and on shelves.

Gary's shoe store was right across the street!!  And the post office across the corner.  So Gary checked for mail and then we took off.
It was a good beginning, so then we started going east to find Fishlake State Park about forty miles away.  All beautiful scenery as usual for Utah!!  We could see the storm clouds overhead, but no rain yet, at least not down at our level.  The clouds always leave dark shadow patterns over the landscape, but beautiful anyway.  The valleys here can be as interesting as the mountains.

We finally reached the lake and found it to be a fisherman's paradise!!

There was a very nice lodge with cabins for those fisherman as well as campgrounds around.  I'm sure a wonderful home away from home.  We are seeing pines, but also stands of white birch.  It will be awesome when they come out in leaf.

From there we turned around and went out to the the highway heading for Capitol Reef National Park.  It is another twenty-plus miles.  Now we will get into the red rocks!!  But I will show you those in a separate Blog.  So check back.  Still no rain!!
