Painted Rocks and the Moab Desert (Utah - Monday Night)

After the Lied Boys and Girls Club in Salt Lake City, we hit the road for Cortez, Colorado. (a quick layover on our way to Albuquerque). As a result, we got to drive through beautiful southern Utah including the Moab Desert.

I have never been to this part of the country and was blown away by the intensity of it. (The only reason that I was awake was because the boys made me drive for once – 349 miles – but I am glad they did!) The scale was magnificent and the colors were otherworldly. I can truly understand why people believe that there is something more.

We got to the famous Utah arches a bit late but Jenny insisted that we go and look at them anyways. The boys humored us for a while until it got pitch black and then demanded that we go and find dinner (It was only like 10:30pm – Jeez!).

These pictures do not do the drive justice but here they are:
