Weekend Trip


Last weekend we took a trip with my family, down to Southern Utah, we went through Moab where we stopped at the Hole in the Rock to stretch and look around, the kids enjoyed all the neat stuff there. Then it was on to Monticello and Blanding where we stayed the night Friday. Saturday morning we headed to Lake Powell. There is some amazing scenery out there, I snapped a ton of pics some while stopped and some while driving. As we were driving by, we decided to stop at the Natural Bridges National Monument, here we saw 3 huge rock bridges along with some Indian ruins. Then it was on to the much anticipated Hite, Lake Powell for a little fishing. When we got there, the water level was very low, couldn't do any fishing or much else for that matter, so we decided to head out, next we stopped at a little place called Hog Springs for a picnic lunch. We talked about stopping at Goblin Valley, but decided to plan that another day and headed to Green River where we checked out the Crystal Geyser, which had just finished going off, so we played in the water, took some more pics, and some of the guys threw in a line, they didn't catch anything, but had fun anyway. Taylor got to try out his remote control boat in the river and the other kids got to play in the sand. I think everyone had a good time and is looking forward to planning another trip maybe this fall :-)

I hope you enjoy the pics.
