hot, Hot, HOT!!!

After roughing it for one day and night, it was time to move to the KOA in Moab and turn on our air conditioning.  With temps reaching nearly 100, we definitely need the cool air!  We got up early to catch the sunrise and do some hiking in the cool of the day.  (Since we're staying on Michigan time, it's pretty darn easy to be up at 5:00 a.m. mountain time!) We pretty much had the trail to Landscape Arch all to ourselves.  After the hike, we did some driving around the park to see...what else...more arches.  There are over 2,000 arches here in Arches National Park.  I don't think we're going to see them all though.  I'm way too hot and I don't have enough memory cards with me for all those pictures.

We had to squeeze through some rocks on our way to check out Sand Dune Arch.



But, the view of Sand Dune Arch was worth the trek through the sand.  I sure do like the sand better in Michigan though...it leads to water!!
