We had some great weather for it, considering where we hail from, there were record setting cold temperatures and snow the weekend previous. Snow one weekend, sunburned forehead the next!
Back to the National Parks of Utah. Or the two we spent time at this trip, Arches and Canyonlands, one day at each, hiking some of the shorter hikes to see some of the better things to see.
Us and forty gazillion other people that were in Moab for a race the next day, we found out. Still great stuff to see, though.
So sorry I surprised you with the guest blogger, Dearest Sister, while visiting these spectacular sites. Perhaps it was taking the easy way out (not cheating! I had a cold!), but I did have to convince Eldest Daughter to do it.

Lovely scenery - glad you are home safely. We always say we should go see those parks, but we are usually 'on the way' to something else and have not taken the time to get off the highway to explore.
Wonderful scenery. However, I must tell you that this autumn is gorgeous in K.C. The reds and purples and golds are splendid..and the cloudy skies (which I usually do not appreciate) make a contrast that is so nice.
Glad you are home safely!!!
Oooohhh! Pretty photos. It's been raining up north. High time for a trip to the Utah desert! :)
I love Moab. We've been several times and Arches always takes my breath away. The last time we were there there was just a little snow, enough to highlight the different strata in the rocks. Beautiful.
Canyonlands is just as lovely in its own way, and so very peaceful.
Better than the travel channel!
one of my favorite places on earth.
