We sold our house in Escalante. We had to move out by the end of November. It was a horrible amount of work. Too much crap. I was so tired of it by Sunday that I decided to run to the top of Antone Bench via the Roundy Trail. Well, run isn't really the word. It is about a 1600 foot rocky vertical slog to the top of the bench. I wasn't running so much as sweating and complaining and feeling sorry for myself. There was snow under the pondos on top of the bench and the wind was cold. I went over to the east side and looked out over the canyons of Mamie Creek and Death Hollow. It was a spectacular view all the way to the Henrys. Since it gets dark early in late November, I had to turn right back around and get off the bench before 5 pm. I didn't want to be scrambling down the trail after the sun set. Whew. Then it was time to turn in the keys and say goodbye to the Escalante house.http://picasaweb.google.com/aorlemann/AntoneBenchUtah#

I don't call what I do "running" either, I think "plodding" is a better description. Congrats on selling the house. Are you living in the camper now?
I gave my insurance company the address of my storage unit. That will have to do for now. The ultimate plan is to move the Four Corners Travel Log to Parowan, Utah. Since that is the edge of the Great Basin, it may need a sister blog. Stand by for the West Desert Travel Log.
I google mapped Parowan, that certainly isn't the 4 corners area. I'm assuming there is a Starbucks with free wifi in Parowan where you'll set up the Western Desert office of the TEAM enterprise team.
