Keely gets Sunset Magazine and one of the articles caught my eye. 'Follow the Red Rock Road' is subtitled 'In tumultuous times, find tranquility in the parks of southern Utah.' I really like Utah, the Escalante area, San Rafael Swell, Arches, the Anasazi Ruins in SE Utah.... The article struck a chord with me as we were on a car camping trip in Utah in Aug/Sep 2001. We were camping in BLM land in the middle of nowhere the whole trip, except for Sep 10 we were in a real campground - Calf Creek, and heard about Sep 11 from the campground host. Very surreal hearing something so messed up in such a beautiful place. 
It's kinda funny actually, my folks read about Calf Creek in Sunset Magazine back in the 70s, and we camped there every time we drove through Utah, which was often cause we drove cross country 10 times when I was a kid. This pic on the right was taken Sep 11. We did a hike down the Escalante River, and there was some Anasazi rock art in places.
