Moab, UT
Today we drove to Moab, UT. For those of you who have never heard of Moab, it is a popular destination for mountain bikers and off-road enthusiasts.
It is also in close proximity to two national parks, Arches and Canyonlands. Which we will try to see tomorrow...both of them...yeah, I didn't leave enough time to see everything. But we already have reservations in West Yellowstone for Friday and we didn't want to have to drive 10+ hours in one day.
Here is a photo of one of the first sandstone outcroppings we saw. What does it remind you of?
After we got settled into our campsight, we headed into town to see what was there. This photo is of the Colorado river, if you can believe it. (It's not that color in Texas) It had rained a little earlier in the day, so the river had a lot of silt from the red colored sandstone in the area.
We also did a little shopping in town and tried some of the locally brewed beers. After the first beer, we decided to try the specialty appetizer. On the menu it sounded like jalapeno poppers but it turned out to be similar to a calzone with fresh jalapeno pieces inside. It was so hot, my lips burned for 30 minutes! Anyway, this last photo is the evening view out the front window of our RV. Isn't it nice? I thought so.
