Our Vacation

This last week (over Pioneer Day weekend), we decided to take a trip. Mike actually had a couple of days that he could take off, so we headed down to Moab (a trip we've been wanting to take for a long time). We stopped first at Goblin Valley.


We spent the night in Green River, then continued on to Moab the next morning.
Day #2: Arches National Park. It was beautiful. We were able to see many of the famous sights, and we took several of the short hikes, too.



Day #3: Canyonlands National Park. This was also an amazing destination. We spent the afternoon on the Island in the Sky. We scrambled over slickrock up the trail to the Upheaval Dome overlook. We also drove through the park, taking in so many beautiful views of the canyons.



Day #4: Before checking out and heading home on our last day, Mike and Jonathan ran back to Arches National Park to hike up to the Delicate Arch. For them, this was the highlight of the trip!
