Arches

For Memorial Day weekend My friends and I went to Moab, it was quite a delight. We left here at about 11:00 in the PM and arrived there about 4:00 in the AM, it shouldn't have taken that long but I was the only one that knew how to get there and I wasn't paying attention so we missed the turn off at Spanish Fork so that took us about a half hour out of the way...and then of coarse we had to stop for snacks and all that good stuff! Anyway we pulled into Moab at 4 AM and had no where to sleep so we decided to drive up to Delicate Arch and hike it so we could see the sunrise, we first however decided to take like an hour nap underneath the stars for about an hour...on the asphalt...which I ended up sleeping there for 3 nights! (not a very good thing for your back) So after our beautiful sunrise hike up to Delicate we were standing by the car and this very tiny cute Asian lady slowly crept toward us with a camera in hand and takes a picture of me...Like I was a wild animal that was ready to pounce at anytime! haha it was such a funny thing.
The next day the wind was so incredibly crazy, we went to Sand Dune Arch and the sand would come whipping around and pelt you, it felt as if your skin was being rubbed raw! Sleeping was even worse we all slept outside on the pavement again in the parking stalls at Delicate Arch parking lot but it was much much colder than the first night had been so we all crammed ourselves into the car...5 of us trying to sprawl out in a little compact car...needless to say that it isn't the most comfortable way to sleep, ha and we again got our pictures taken by people because of coarse we looked absolutely ridiculous trying to sleep in a tiny car! Ha oh the memories are what makes it all worth it!
