You Have To See It To Believe It.

I just wanted to say a few words while we have internet, since we will be camping again for the next few days as long as it doesn't downpour again. Yesterday we drove from the beautiful Colorado where we were surrounded by enormous snow-topped mountains and lush, green trees to the incredible Utah which, so far, looks like we are on another planet-- Mars perhaps. We started off driving through some snow which was unexpected, but then again, everything so far has been that way. As we were driving, the landscape changed completely. All of a sudden we were encircled by a red, rocky desert with no sign of trees or plants, except cactus. While driving down from the mountains, we saw these huge white letters painted on the rocks that said "Hole N' The Rock" so we pulled over to see what it was. I couldn't believe it... there was a house built in the rock. A couple back in the day, well over 50 years ago, somehow came across this area and said... that is where I want to live. Well, now, many years after they have passed, they are giving tours through the home and it supposedly is exactly how they left it. I wish we could have taken pictures, but they wouldn't let us. I loved it though and found it fascinating that people voluntarily lived in a cave in the middle of nowhere.

Then we went to Arches National Park which was absolutely incredible. You will have to take a look at our pictures so see what it was like, but they really don't do it justice.

From there, we kept driving and came across Capital Reef. That is what looked like we had just been dropped on the planet Mars. If Hollywood hasn't made movies about other planets there yet, they should! It's truly like nothing I've ever seen. There were mountains and canyons that were made out of red rocks, dirt, and who knows what. I wish I could describe how cool it was.

Anyways, now we are on our way to go hiking in Bryce Canyon and then hopefully camp out in Zion National Park. We will try to get pictures up soon and update again. Hope everyone is doing well!
