Headed back

So we stayed a rainy night in a hotel in Sacremento and then headed up through Donner Pass and onto Tahoe. Tahoe was cold,but very pretty. We stopped for some shopping and I changed the secondary filter, third time I think, then onto Cedar City Nevada. We found a new biodiesel manufacturing facility south of Carsen City in Minden. We bought a full tank of bio and then talked with the nice people of Bentley Biofuels. We got the tires rotated and balanced, but they didn't stay that way very long. I think the extreme weight of the extra oil has been ahrd on the car. We are also out of the Racor Veggie Filters and I haven't found a truck stop yet that has any Fleetguard semi diesel filters that would work on the vegitherm. We left Cedar City for the "lonelest road in America" as stated by the Lonely Planet guide which is Hwy 50. If any of you get the chance you need to take this road, it is just absolutly incredible. We stayed that night close to the Great Basin National Park.

The next day we hiked for a bit through the Great Basin and then back on the road. The first half of the day was just spent getting to Hwy 70 in Utah. The car is making alot of noise in the rear end. I still haven't been able to diagnose it, but I think it is probably a combination of the weight, need of new rear shocks, and extreme daily mileage. Hwy 70 is also just a "Geologic Wonderland" as stated on a road sign.

We finally made it to Moab Utah whcich is very close to Arches and Canyonlands National Parks. Bucks Grill is a must eat in this town, enjoy the Buffalo or Elk dishes. Arches is next and then on to Boulder.

Talk to you soon.
