Moab, Utah June 2015


 We took a multi-generation family trip to Moab, Utah after the wedding of our third daughter, this spring.  We rented a cabin about 20 miles from Moab.  It was wilderness area.  It was beautiful with magnificent sunsets, wild scenery, and beautiful starry nights. All of our children came for a few days and we celebrated a birthday, took walks, watched Princess Bride on the deck with a projector and screen.  We roasted marshmallows, made cocoa, ate enchiladas we made at home and put together puzzles.  Our dog rolled in cow pies and had to be washed, chased bunnies and slept on the porch while we read books with pillows on the deck outside.  We visited Arches and Canyonland National Parks.  We had a good time despite spending a day at the animal hospital with our Chihuahua, losing our dog Napoleon on a mountain bike ride with Brad (we found him), and Janet getting lost and taking a 6 hour drive (it was a beautiful drive) before finding her way to Moab. 



 Hiking isn't Avery's favorite thing.  We chose the shortest hikes at Arches and the bigger kids went back with Brad for an early morning hike that was longer.  It was beautiful!
