Steph and Mickel invited me to go with them for a weekend jaunt down to Moab for some hiking. I had not been down there for quite a few years (the girls and I used to go regularly), and I forgot just how spectacularly beautiful it truly is. We went for quite a few hikes in Arches National Monument. When we weren't doing that, the kids were swimming. The weather was absolutely perfect - in the 80s, with sunny skies and a breeze. It was pretty hard to come back to Salt Lake's cold rain!
Delicate Arch, while being one of the more challenging places to get to, is so dramatically beautiful - it's almost shocking as you come around that last bend. At least this time we managed to not get lost on the trail and end up coming up the face! And you know how you meet people you know in weird places? Well, I ran into a former co-worker (DJ) at the top. It's a small world!
