Woke up a bit late this morning, grabbed a coffee to go in Moab and headed out to Arches National Park.
We had a bit of a double-whammy as it was a Saturday and it was also the weekend that National Parks are free of charge - the place was crowded and the Arches were jammed - parking lot was double-parked. Screw that.
Got a bunch of nice photos of the other formations in the park - there is a lot more going on than just the arches. The weather cooperated wonderfully.
Got an email saying that if we were passing though Green River, UT, that Ray's Tavern was the place to go for burgers. It still is.
Green River struck us as having suffered a zombie apocalypse - there are trucks parked here and there but most of the businesses are shuttered and there is nobody walking around - not a soul. The town website (the link is just above) has not been updated since February 2013. There is talk of a nuke plant though - check out the Blue Castle Project
We are camped just outside of Bryce Canyon and planning to spend two days here doing Bryce and Zion. Next up is Vegas, Yosemite National Park, the Blacksmith Conference and then home.
I'll be posting some photos tomorrow.
