We’re now finished with Day 2 of our trip. And for those who are wondering, the number of poopy diapers did not disappoint…though I DID give Lisa a break today and change one for her. Who says I never help?<\/p>\n


\nWe started the day packing and loading up the car while Justin introduced Micah to the world of iPod.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

We then headed for a healthy breakfast from McDonalds before hitting the road through Monument Valley…with a short wait while someone else hogged the road…twice:<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

However, we then continued on our day’s detour so we could see the only point in the US where 4 states meet: Four Corners Arizona…or is it New Mexico? Utah? Colorado? At least we got our family picture without it looking too awkward.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Our trip then took us up through Moab Utah, which has to be one of the most beautiful places in the country. Known for its rafting, kayaking, and off-roading paradise, Moab includes canyons and rock formations that rival anything you’ve ever seen.
\nAfter a quick lunch, Lisa talked me into taking the “Scenic drive” to get to I-70 instead of the regular route…and boy was it worth it. The drive followed the Colorado River through a canyon of red rock…but pictures never do it justice.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

We did stumble across the historic Dewey Bridge that burned a year ago in a brush fire. All that remains are the large cables that suspended the 100 year old bridge…kind of a ghostly reminder of the past<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Finally, after a trip to Wal-Mart and take-out from Famous Dave’s BBQ, we ended the trip sitting comfortable in our hotel suite, resting up for our final day of the drive.<\/p>\n
