  Speechless Sunday - One of a Kind Jeep   Here's another very interesting sculpture we came across at The Hole In The Rock in Moab, Utah. It almost seems like a prop out of a cartoon as it reminds me a little of Fred Flintstone's car for some reason. The body is made entirely of license plates, the tires, seats, etc. of tools, scrap metals and "parts".

  Wordless Wednesday - A Lotta Bull   This is a most interesting sculpture we came across when visiting the Hole In The Rock near Moab, Utah last week. It's made entirely of rusted tools, scrap metal and "parts", fit seemlessly together to make a rather impressive bull. I don't know the artist's name, but would love to see more of his/her work.

  Speechless Sunday - Sunday In The Desert - Lots of Arches   As the boys and I continue our vacation in Moab, Utah, we spent the day further exploring Arches National Park. Today we hit North Window Arch, South Window Arch, Turret Arch and my very favorite, the Double Arch. We were able to visit all four with only about two miles worth of hiking. What an amazing natural phenomenom!

  Blogging From The Road - The Hole In The Rock, Moab, Utah   This is a piece of Americana that's just too charming to pass up. Back in the 1940s, Albert Christensen began carving out a piece of massive red stone in the Utah desert. It eventually became a roadside diner, mostly catering to miners in the area. Later he and his wife, Gladys, excavated 5,000 square feet into the rock, creating their expansive home which included 14 rooms around massive pillars and even included a fireplace and chimney. Albert died in 1957 with the home not yet completed. Gladys finished it in his memory and then supported herself by making jewelry which she sold in the gift shop. Gladys passed away in 1974 and was buried beside Albert in a special alcove carved into the rock behind their home. Now days the...

  Blogging From The Road - The Delicate Arch, Arches National Park, Moab   Continuing our vacation in Moab, Utah, our boys and I hiked to the Delicate Arch in Moab, Utah Wednesday morning. We left at 6 am in an attempt to avoid the 100+ degree day time temps. It worked, as it was barely 90 when we finished. The hike is over three miles and part of that is up pretty step rock and sandstone. But it was worth the trip. The Delicate Arch has stood as sort of a symbol of the state of Utah, even gracing the state's license plates, and is such a unique natural, geological phenomenon. We have explored other arches at the park on previous vacations but this is the first time we went all the way to this one. This is Sam and Ben under the arch...

  Friday's Foto - Red Rocks By Sunrise   Tuesday morning, we set off to hike to the Delicate Arch in Arches National Park in Moab, Utah at 6 a.m. in an attempt to beat the day's heat. The early start allowed us a different view of the red rocks on the way in, as the rising sun turned the rocks even redder than usual. If you don't normally read my blog, we're currently vacationing in Utah, but live and work in Oregon.

  Speechless Sunday - Chilling in the Desert   Our boys and I (Gretchen) are in Moab, Utah visiting my parents for a couple weeks. This is Ben and Sam relaxing in Nana and Papa's hot tub (which wasn't so hot) after a long day in the desert. We were surprised a little later on by am impromptu fireworks display just up the hill from us, which my camera didn't capture so well. I love that you can see some of the red mountains of Moab behind my parents' yard.

We took a mini-break vacation and went to Moab from Colorado Springs for 5 days.  Google maps put the drive time at 6 1/2 hours, but with a rest stop and a gas top up, it took us 7 hours driving at a very moderate clip!  We had driven across Utah twice on the way to Vegas but this was our first trip to the state as a destination. Arches National Park was brilliant!  It is hard to describe and more difficult to capture with a standard 35mm digital camera, but we tried!  This a picture of our son (8) sitting underneath the arch and writing about it in his journal. And one more picture of Arches showing the set of Arches they call Double Arch (which is picture off the Arches website)...note to self, must get a digital SLR camera! The total distance from home to where we stayed was some 450...
