We got a fresh start around 10 this morning. The night was chilly in Nephi. I tried taking Roxxi out on the leash and she didn't care for that. She ate and drank though, and seems happy. Maggie is a great dog companion for her and all is good! It's a 3 hour trip and we stopped for fuel, potty, and food in Florence. We arrived at Sand Hollow, near Hurricane UT and situated close to Zion National Park, around 2 pm. We have a beautiful view from the campsite. The pets are doing wonderful and we took the RZR out on a little trail ride. It's gorgeous weather and views here and glad to be settled for a couple of nights here.

On the road again Day 1 10/21/2025
The RV is serviced, fueled and packed and the pets are riding along, a dog who has made many trips and a cat who is brand new to this sort of adventure. She's our tiny kitty who's about 10 years old. She's only been separated from us for short periods until our last RV trip. Usually she was fine, but when we left for a few months we came back and she'd lost weight and hadn't come back in the house after the first day the sitter let her out. I couldn't bear to leave her so we made the decision to give her a try in the RV. The first couple hours were interrupted with a few desperate whines, but now 3 hours into the ride, Roxxi has found a happy place nuzzling with our Aussie, Maggie.
The weather at our home in Idaho was chilly this morning with the first frost of the year. It was a confirmation that it's a great time to head south. The stay tonight is in Nephi, UT. A small town that was a good distance to break up the trip to Sand Hollow where we're going tomorrow.
