I'm finally getting around to updating my shamefully overdue blog (for my own posterity's sake :). Starting with our research/pleasure trip (way back in April) around and across and through the Colorado Plateau.
Link cuddles a birthday monkey from Aunt Sherrie.
Jed scopes out U-95 along Comb Ridge near Blanding.
They blasted out a heck of a lot of rock for that road. . . 
We met up for fun times with my fam in Moab. Hanging with Aaron, Kennedy, and Madelyn
Then we hooked up with Jed's fam in St. George. Link and Bek at Zion
I love the name of this at Zion: "The Great White Throne"
Ellie, Oma, and Ikey near the Weeping Rock at Zion
Link with Unca Spence at the Snow Canyon Sand Dunes
Rogers rogues at some favorite stomping grounds: Snow Canyon (Petrified Sand Dunes)
Gorgeous orchards in Capital Reef
