I have been getting up sooo early...Utah time is hard getting used to. So once again I was up at the crack of dawn. When everyone got up and around we went to breakfast at the jailhouse cafe. If there's one thing I realized about these western folks it's that they may not have sweet tea, but they can dang sure cook some bacon. Oh my gosh...It was sooo good! After breakfast we headed up to Arches National Park. I hadn't been up to Delicate Arch in several years so I was looking forward the the hike. The hike climbs 480ft in a mile & a half, but it's so worth it! Delicate Arch is one of the most amazing things i've seen.
After the hike we grabbed some lunch, and headed back out in the jeep
Our second day of jeeping wasn't quite as eventful as the first...It was way more hilarious. We did some fun trails & eventually came across a group of bikers. They were sooo lost..we had a map of the trails, so they looked at it and figured out what they needed to do. We were talking back and forth with them...just casual conversation when some guy on a four wheeler pulls up and starts shouting...."Everyone know where their at?"
ummm yes psycho we're holding a map....
"Ok is everyone ok? Is anyone lost?"
No crazy...as previously stated we ALL know where we are!
"Ok just checking to see if everyone knows where they are"
YES!! We know where we are, and we know we want to be away from you...go away! GOSH!
It was so funny...I was like did he seriously just ask us 20 times if we were lost?? Whatever....So we continue...We take a few more trails, and then we decided to stop at a tunnel through the rocks. We go through the tunnel, and who is standing there?...None other than Mr. "Does everyone know where their at?".
OMG do we seriously have to find ourselves AGAIN??? Leave us alone. We know where we are!! He goes on to tell Daddy that he's a tour guide, and blah blah blah...It was so bad & Daddy was literally standing there patronizing him. Tour guide had NO idea he was being made fun of. It was ridiculous. Here are some tunnel pictures. It was sooo cool as we were walking through...literally cool...like it was air conditioned. A good break from the heat :)
After jeeping we went and ate at Sunset Grill. Their food is always so good! They bring in different chefs from all over the world, and they never disappoint.
When we finished eating Daddy drove us up to a lake in the La Sal Mountains. It's beautiful up there. Thick woods & gorgeous white trees. It's like an enchanted forest. The only thing is that people camp all in the woods, and it's weird. Not the camping, but the people. We would drive by, and it was like they were all scared they were gonna get caught. A bunch of creeper hippies if you ask me. I certainly wouldn't wanna be left alone up there no matter how pretty it is. Here are some pictures. The sunset was gorgeous.
Daddy carved Beka's name in this tree years ago...We found it!
