Our moments of inspiration are not lost though we have no particular poem to show for them; for those experiences have left an indelible impression, and we are ever and anon reminded of them. -- Henry David Thoreau

Spring Cleaning with Autobond
We didn't get to go out of town this weekend, so I decided to do a little spring cleaning on the T@b. I cleaned all the bird poop, sap and road grime off of every nook and cranny and then waxed her with a liquid wax called Autobond. This stuff was recommended by someone on the T@b groups website. It was easy to use and buffed out easier than other liquid waxes I have used in the past. I definitely recommend Autobond if you want your T@b to look sparkling new. She looks like she did the first day we drove her home.

Fremont Indian State Park
During the construction of I-70 through the central part of Utah in the 1980's, workers uncovered the ruins of a large fremont indian village with numerous pit houses, granaries, rock tools and other artifacts dating from around A.D. 400 through 1300. Archaeologists were allowed to go in and document the structures and artifacts before the highway construction proceeded. The highway was eventually constructed, and the remains of the village and other collected artifacts are now preserved in the Fremont Indian State Park Museum. There is still a lot of rock art near the museum and along Clear Creak Canyon. The petroglyphs are pretty accessible off of a loop trail that starts right from the museum.
This was our second time visiting Fremont Indian State Park. We met up with the professional campers again and stayed in the Sam Stowe Group Site (which is a great little secluded canyon with excellent facilities). We had a nice time even though the weather was a little too cold. Our summary for the weekend was: Freezing-Cold-Sun-Wind-Freezing-Cold. It got down to about 15 degrees at night, which is pretty darn cold for camping. Everyone's waterline was frozen in the morning, with luckily, only minor damage reported.
