Moab Utah - Arches National Park

More rocks - more incredible earth colors - more out-of-this-world vistas. Words are insufficient to describe this geology. Little arches, medium arches and large arches. One actually fell a couple years ago after a million years of standing at attention. Fortunately it was overnight with no tourists underneath!I have met the nicest people touring this part of the world - several families from London, and I hear French and German spoken everywhere. Europeans are as fascinated by this part of the world as we are, and their school schedules are different from ours, so they get to avoid the large crowds during the middle of summer. One woman I spoke to today commented that we, Americans, must be frustrated with the immenseness of our country and the inability of being able to see all of its beauty in one short lifetime. I agreed. We are planning our next trip already.....
