Colorado and Arches

This year, on our way back to Utah, we decided to take the long route through Colorado. It was stunning! I would definitely live in Colorado if given the chance! The route also took us close to the Arches National Park, so we decided to stop and see that. This whole "vacation before our vacation" was so much fun. I really do think I have the best family on the planet! oh- and there is this picture of a yellow-boat thingy.. It was run-off on the Colorado River. The water was crazy high and these guys were taking this boat-craft thing down the river. It was really neat to watch! For all my rafting friends out there, the guys said the water was at least a level 5 but mostly higher and un-raftable... unless you had one of those cool boats.
