August 1 - Arches National Park

Lodging: Moab, UT

Wow! I’m going to have to get a new book of adjectives. The Southwest is so colorful, it’s like the landscape decided to take a bath in a bucket of watercolors. I saw it all at the Colorado National Monument and Arches National Park- red cliffs, green trees, blue sky, orange and purple sunset. I really don’t know how to select just a few pictures. The one of me standing without the bike is at the Colorado National Monument - amazing vista. The one of me on the bike with the red cliffs in the background is from Arches National Monument as are the others. I’ve included a shot of one of the arches and a shot of the full moon over a colorful landscape.
