Going up I15 was definitely the right choice. We got up at 7 (8 local) and made the trip up to Brigham City in a little over 6 hours. There wasn't any traffic to speak of. That's probably because it was Saturday.
For once we had a tail wind for part of the way. It wasn't a strong one, but every bit helps. The first 150 miles involved climbing several thousand feet and then going down part of it. We got over 11.5 mpg. The other 200+ miles were a little down hill and a lot of flat. We got 13.8. That's great.
We got to the park a little after 2. We set up and then walked over to the Walmart across the street. We got a couple of things, but we really just went there to have something to do. After that we came back and did some reading. The RV park gave us a free Sunday paper.
At time for dinner we went back across the street to a Sonic. We took the dog. When we got back it was finally cool enough to use the windshield repair kit I bought yesterday. It looks like it worked well. Unfortunately it needs sunlight to complete and it was near dark when I finished. So I'll have to let it cure tomorrow while we're on the road.
All in all it was as good a travel day as we could hope for.
