Day One Hundred And Twenty Two 5/2/11

Monday In Utah
We packed up Carlos early monday morning and headed west towards Utah. The drive through Colorado was a first for me and mind blowing. Colorado is a beautiful colorful state and is always nice to look at. When we got into Utah it was obvious we were in another state, the Rockies were gone and there was red Canyons everywhere. We took the scenic route on 128 and creped our way into the Canyons deeper and deeper all the while following the curves of the Colorado River. When we arrived in Moab we searched for a camp ground and after some unlucky spots, we found our spot the South Big Bend Campground. Our view was amazing, with huge canyons on each side and the CO river as our close neighbor. After unpacking everything and setting up the huge tent without a glitch, we built a fire and sat back and relaxed with some Red Stripe Pounders and cooked sausage dogs over the fire. My favorite part of that whole night was being able to finally see what the stars looked like with the red Canyons and dark sky. The sky was breathtaking and there were millions of stars. It was a great first day of an amazing vacation.
This is a picture of our campsite and our view.
