Although I lived in Utah for several years in the 1960’s , I never visited that part , so thanks for the tips .

I do remember being chilly after swimming , even on very hot days . It was like going back and forth between an oven and a refrigerator . You’d be overheated , get into the water , come out wet , chill down rapidly and be covered in goosebumps for a couple of minutes , and as soon as the water had evaporated , you would quickly be overheated again .

I knew several people who had no A/C in their homes . Instead they had ‘swamp coolers’ – a box of wet excelsior , and forced air blowing through it , so the outlet flow might be 15 or 20 degrees lower than the inlet . But , the cooled air was moist , so less comfortable than A/C .

there’s a cluster of notable things near moki dugway.

muley point:  a promontory 1,200′ above the San Juan valley.  270 degree views for fifty miles.  turn west at the top of the dugway, about four miles.

valley of the gods:  17 mi drive through mesas, buttes, red and orange stone.  similar to monument valley (just down the road) without most of the crowd, the tourist stands, and the fees and rules of the Navajo tribal park.  turn off to the east near the foot of the dugway.

goosenecks state park:  an entrenched meander of the San Juan river.  as twisty as the ox bows of the Mississippi, but cut into thousand foot trenches.

and, of course the Mexican Hat (a stone sombrero), four corners (more Navajo tribal park with souvenir stands), and the canoe landing just upstream from the village of Mexican Hat. (take the road across from the shell station).  good for a splash in the water – you won’t believe how fast you dry off in the desert air.  enjoy!

I may do a trip out that way in August . I will be in South America all of June , then dog-watching for a month after mid-July , but want to get my grandkids from SoCal , PA and UT to Mesa Verde before they go back to school if I can arrange it . Enjoy your ramble !

the correlation between ADP and Non-Farm payrolls isn’t all that reliable for some reason, but I agree, whatever the crowd thinks gold might do, it will probably do the opposite – but just for the day – unless it’s down.

I don’t know how many days in a row now that silver has been down 1% or more pre-market, gotta be at least a week or more.

No she didn’t? Must have been someone else.

Don’t get me started about security interviews.  Had enough of that crap.   Pussy Galore passed away with the AIDS epidemic, sadly.

As an aside, does anybody have Pussy Galore’s number?

Right, maybe it’s necessary for us to go back to the days of only the strong survive. They want anarchy in this country that’s what they’ll get. They’ve been around since the days of Judas.

I’d trade the lives of seal team six over all of those useless cronies who conned their way in gov mindlessly for their own gain in a heart beat. Life has become backasswards. Their time should have already come and gone. Talking about high crimes of treason.

A buddy complained about my esoteric bent with my many letters to the Editor. I explained it is part of my schtick so people question and get discussing the subject.
