The week after Easter was the kids' spring break. We decided to spend a few days camping in Moab that week. We rented a camper and hauled all the bikes down with us. We visited Arches to see the parts we didn't get to see the trip before and so Riley could earn his Jr. Ranger Badge. Now he has badges from Arches, Zion, Bryce and Kenai Fjords. We also went riding for a day while we were there. Kendall and I broke in my new quad and the boys rode their dirt bikes. Riley learned some good lessons for riding in sand...Poor boy struggled in some deep sections but he did really well considering the conditions.
Sadly, Riley got sick while we were there. He threw up numerous times and it was always a huge mess to clean up! Ugh! The worst was when he threw up in the middle of the night! Less than 24 hrs. home and Kendall was the one throwing up! Thankfully they didn't both get it at the same time and each only lasted about 24 hrs! We were lucky no one got sick on the way home in the truck!
Some views from our Moab Trip:
In Arches National Park
Near the Firey Furnace
Hiking back to see the Landscape Arch
Lots of sand hills around
Kendall didn't like the sand in her shoes!
We finally found it! This is Riley's favorite arch because it's in the Utah book we bought before we moved here!
Out in the distance are snow capped mountains!
The scenery while on our ride!
From the Gemini Bridges Trail
Snack and drink break!
Our second visit to Moab was again, too short, but one that was much needed! We all got a chance to spend quality time together and get away from everything at home!
