Regrets

South Burlington, Vermont

What regrets do we have from our trip?   Of course, for every place we visited there are countless equal or better places we didn't visit.   One can't regret them all.

More specifically, we drove a spectacular 80 miles on Utah Route 12 between Escalante to Capitol Reef.   It was wonderful.  In 2010, Dave and I were enchanted by this road.  In 2013, it was Libby and I and the enchantment repeated.   However, this time as we approached Boulder, we found signs describing Hell's Backbone Road.   It sounded grand.  

I now regret, not backtracking 38 miles, so that we could do it a second time using the Hell's Backbone route rather than Route 12.  I'm afraid that the urge to press forward and not backtrack was too strong.  Darn.
