We awoke to rain pattering on the roof. A quick check of the weather radar showed rain around the entire area but slowly moving east. So we changed our plans a bit and delayed our start. The rain moved on and we picked up Cynthia and Felix in Moab. We started the drive along the Colorado River and stopped at the Castle Creek Winery. A waitress had told us they were closing, so we wanted to stop in and do a tasting before they were gone. We found a couple of wines that were pretty good, so we picked up 4 bottles to enjoy later. We then picked up the La Sal Mountain Loop and enjoyed the wonderful views as we took it all the way around to the south of Moab. We took US191 south to the turn off for the Needles District of Canyonlands NP. We stopped off at Newspaper Rock before proceeding into Canyonlands NP. We followed the main road all the way to the end, stopping off at the overlooks and driving through the campground before heading back to Moab. Back in Moab, we enjoyed a wonderful steak dinner at Josie Wyatts.
