ARCHES (right next to MOAB) and the ANDERSONS

 Well I have never been to MOAB and now I can say that I have seen MOAB from a distance because our family took a day trip to ARCHES.  Dallin visited ARCHES all the time growing up and has been excited to take me for years. 

The kids did great and thought everything was so cool because of Dallin's enthusiasm about the arches, red rocks, and balancing rocks.

 The weather was perfect and the blue skies were gorgeous.

 Hannah did great

We knew we wanted to visit Delicate Arch and Dallin was wise to do it at the beginning of the day when legs were fresh and before it got too hot.  It is over 3 miles round trip.  Some of the trail is on the edge of a cliff.  The kids thought it was so cool but I was a little nervous, but we did it.  Many people were very impressed that we made it to the top with all four kids.

 I have seen many pictures and replicas of Delicate Arch so I wasn't expecting to be too impressed but I was blown away.  It is amazing and you really just have to see it to understand.

 The kids enjoyed the Arches but I think their favorite was the red sand.  "What a fun sandbox!!!"  was a comment we received over and over again.

It was a fun and exhausting day.  Our family sure enjoyed the beauty of Arches.

MOAB - The First Time

.Maybe Reesa had never been to Moab, but I am thinking that Jeffrey certainly has... back, oh I'd say about 20 years ago.

It was a great camping trip with his two brothers - Jason and Robbie.

Now, a Subaru may seem like great camping vehicle, but whoah baby, a Sub' is nothing like a camping adventure in the Shag'in Wag'in.

Those three boys were such studs back then.

Jeff has even climbed on boulders in Moab back in 1993.

And Jeffrey has cruised the back roads of Moab in an old Chevy pick-up truck.

 And Jeffrey has cruised the rapids of the Colorado River upstream from Moab...  (The king of the world?)

Yes,  Jeffrey has a heritage of great rock climbers... bold, daring rock climbers.

Yes, Jeffrey has been hiking those red formations around Moab for a long time.
