I am so glad we got away for the weekend and enjoyed a little warmth and sunshine, because we got back to Salt Lake and plunged right back into cold, rainy weather. Ugh. This has been the longest winter e v e r. I am glad the tulips are blooming and the trees are flowering, so Spring doesn't feel so non-existent.
The trip really was nice. The first night was chilly, but we were super cozy-warm in our tent. Greg and I invested in a two-person sleeping bag and it was the warmest, most comfortable sleeping bag I have ever slept in. It was also HUGE! It took up half of our cargo space in the Sequoia. Well worth it, though. :) The sun was shining the entire time and we got to ride lots on our dirt bikes. I was pretty nervous on my dirt bike at first, but when Greg and I went on our last ride of the trip on Saturday night, I was feeling much more confident. Dirt biking is not a hobby I would have chosen, but now that I'm giving it some time, I really like it. I am also itching to go to Moab again soon...need to get that trip on the calendar.

Oh man, good grief!!! Was there a trail up to the top of that last rock???? A fun weekend!!
Glad you guys had such a great time! Wish we could have been there too!
Your new camera takes great pictures! It looks like you guys had lots of fun... why did I never take advantage of that area of Utah when we lived there?
Also, I really like your new pic at the top!
