Moab, Utah

It is so dark here in Moab. Our community has a "lights out". There are no street lights or house lights on at night. The benefit here is that you can see so many stars especially when the moon is not out. We just got back from a trip to West Valley City. It was fun to see the boys and to shop. We hit both CostCo and Sam's club, stopped in at Kohls and then picked up pizza for dinner. Sunday we went to church in our old ward. It was good to see everyone. We got me home and unloaded in Moab but on the way back to Montrose, Ken got a flat tire in the Honda and had to put the little "donut" spare on. It takes quite a bit longer to go 40 mph than 65 mph. At least he got off the road safe and is now home safe and sound.

Jordan and Sara Visit


Last weekend Jordan and friends Sara, Katie and Trent came down to stay with me in Moab and play in the desert. They had scheduled a lot of activities. They arrived Friday and promptly left for Arches National Park. Saturday Marcy and I took them up to Left Hand on Millcreek and let them jump off the ledges into the water hole below. Photo is of Sara jumping. They left later that afternoon to complete their tour of Arches.


Saturday evening we had a nice lasagne dinner cooked by Marcy.




Sunday was their day on the river. They had a tour with Moab Adventures to do some white water rafting. Ken and I went to church and afterwards headed up the river to see if we could get a few photos of them. They were always on the go. Sunday they took Ken and I out to dinner at Zax's. Monday the left for Salt Lake City. It was good to have them here.
