After a quick pack up in Colorado we were off again. Lack of sleep due to a cold and uncomfortable night only made the morning worse. We traveled to Mesa Verde, not far down the road, a place I picked out and immediately regretted. You see I have an EXTREME fear of heights which was really shown that morning...
The road up the mountain is very windy, with steep cliffs and edges to make me lay on the floor in a ball the whole way up. Now due to lack of sleep and fear of heights this drove me over the edge. Panic attacks started and my day was ruined. I can't put into words my fear of heights or what a panic attack is like, but it made me want to just go home. I was ready to hop a plane and just give up ( funny how and terrified of height, yet id fly a plane?)
After we left there we hit Utah. Not fully recovered my day continued to drag a bit, but i pulled through. Now, Utah is a beautiful state in some areas, don't get me wrong, but I will never come back here again! We would drive about a hundred miles and see not one town, not anything, its a barren land. The mountain start blending together and your spirits plummet.
It was freezing when we finally got to our camp site, in the middle of a windy valley with civilization for miles. We cooked out food and I kid you not ran to the heated bathrooms to eat it, that's how cold it was lol. I wanted to just leave, just hop on the closest plane and leave. I was sick of the heights, and fear, sick of the nothingness and just tired from not sleeping well for a couple nights.
For Today- The servants
