Arches National Park



ARCHES NATIONAL PARK!
This past weekend my roommate, Maureen, her friend Lindsey from Vermont, and our friend Joel went to Arches in Southern Utah! It was such a fun trip, and the arches were so beautiful! My jaw dropped with every new sight. I learned something this weekend I didn't know before, Utah really is very beautiful!



Here we are on our hike to Delicate Arch. Joel, Maureen, Lindsay and I.
Here's Delicate Arch. It was so beautiful. It was a perfect day, perfect weather, and great company. After we hiked up to the arch (about a 1.5 mile hike up) we sat and enjoyed the view. Because it's still early in the year there weren't very many people there and we got to enjoy it in near solitude.

When we got close to the arch there was a window you could climb up and look through and see your first sight of the arch. It was so beautiful.

I know you can't see me very well, but I am standing up on that middle rock. It was kindof a small space that I was standing on so I was like, "Maureen hurry up and take it so I can get down!"






Here's me, with the beauty of Arches in the background. I look kindof like a bug.





Maureen and I enjoying the beauty. She's been a great roommate. I love this girl!
Well, that's it. I'm hoping that since I am taking time out of my busy schedule that maybe somebody else will take this as a suggestion to post something from their fam.?! If not, hope you enjoyed the pics!
