Arches National Park was on my list of must see places on this trip and it did not dissapoint. The red rock arches and blue sky background made for some great pictures. The sky was relatively clear when we were there, due to a cold front blowing through. When I think of this area, I dont really think of cold weather, but it was an eye opener to me when the overnight temps were in the low 20s. Karen found a neat little place called "Hole 'N The Rock" just outside of Moab, so we decided to check it out. Its one of those tourist attractions that from the outside looks a little cheesey, but once inside it was a different story! This is a 5,000 plus square foot home built into the side of a mountain! The rock was blasted out using dynamite, by the owner. There is a great story about how it started out as a home with a diner in the front of it for the public and eventually the husband passed away and the wife continued on to finish the home. Luckily she decided to open it up for tours. We only had time for a 2 day stay in Moab, but it was jam packed with great scenery and interesting places to visit! This area is known for off road adventures in the form of Motorcycles, four wheelers, Jeeps and any other off road vehicle you can think of! With that being said, Moab goes on another list I have of "Must come back to"!
