I made my annual pilgrimage to Moab this weekend
This weekend I got to back to one of my favorite places in the country. Moab, Utah. There are few things better than going for a swim in the Colorado river, or exploring the slick rock and arches around this amazing place. If you have even the tiniest outdoor bone in your body, you have to go to Moab. There is hiking, mountain biking, river rafting, four wheeling and camping that all ranks in the top of their class compared to any place in the country.
We were only there for a short trip this time, due to the wife being 9 months pregnant and all, but we had a great time for sure. We went for swim in the river to get cooled off and have some lunch, then spent the rest of the day exploring Arches National Park. This got the kids seal of approval, and there were many promises to return for more exploration in the future.
This is my new favorite arch in the whole park. After checking it out a bit this thing is super cool, it’s called the double arch and is right by the “windows section” and the even cooler “cove of caves”. 
The infamous balanced rock in arches national park.
Next year we are planning to camp out in and explore Canyonlands National Park for our 3rd annual Moab trip. I did a quick pass through last year, but didn’t get to see hardly any of the park, so next year it gets a thorough going over.
