And finally for today, hours after getting off the houseboat and eventually leaving Bullfrog, I camped just before sunset out on sandy BLM desert land (east of the Gilson Buttes), only a little ways north of Hanksville... About 1.5 hours up the road today, leaving 8 more hours home tomorrow. Before turning in, I caught a marvelous post-full moonrise, with the Pleides visible, along with various other stars.
