Still aspiring to be a recreational professional, regreting the extra fudge.

Moab update

12:00-1:00: IHOP. I don't remember the last time I went to IHOP but I am pretty sure they have upgraded their menu since. Cheesecake Pancakes.

1:00-the rest of the day (rule #1 on vacation, quick keeping track of time upon arrival): Listen to Steven Colbert book on tape. Arrive in Moab, go to Arches National Park. Eat at Jays Pasta and hate ourselves after. Find a hotel.

Sunset time: We hiked to Delicate Arch (you know, the one on the license plate). It was a good hike. We kept a good pace and hiked about 30 min in and 30 min out. Jerry keeps me on my toes. But the view at top (8:15- sunset), was incredible. You think something that big and wondrous would be visible from far. Not true. Only from the top of the trail (check video). Talk about life, how much we love what we are doing, and about how I will never been driving Jerry on a golf cart to the top of Delicate Arch (he will always be able to hike up there).

Night time-now: Hunt for ice cream. Find it at McDonalds. Get extra fudge and regret it. Shower. Blog. Jerry texts mom and Kaitlyn.
