April 30, 2010 Arches National Park, Moab, Utah

o43010
We spent half the morning deciding where to go away from the cold. Most anywhere was colder, or we had to drive thru mountains and snow with the bus to get too. We decided on monument valley. the RV park we were in was full for the weekend. We went off to arches again and hiked a 2 mile trail to some arches I had never seen before, then we hiked up to Delicate Arch, 3 miles round trip, lots of elevation. It is a very popular arch and has tons of people going to it, but i think it is the most beautiful arch ever. It was raining, windy and cold when we left, but the sun came out for most of the hikes. Caught us again on the way down from delicate arch. When  we came back John cooked a lovely stir fry and here I am writing. . .
