THANKSGIVING

Thanksgiving was great! Here's the low-down, or down-low - whatever.

Wednesday we had a visit and lunch with Grandma & Grandpa Cash (on their way to Dave & Robyn's). Then we met up with Obo & Aba (TJay's parents) and drove down to Price where we ate at Grog's (very, very yummy food); then we continued down to Moab where we had rented a house: 3 bedroom, 3 bath, living room, full kitchen - it was very nice (for the same price as a motel room).

Thursday we woke up to rain - it poured all day - but we still went to Arches National Park. It was very cool to see the park in the rain, we didn't hike that day, but could still drive around and see the park. We ate at Denny's (it was open and we didn't need reservations) and went to the movies. The kids & I saw Bolt (Ky & I wanted to see Twilight, but Trey won out); TJay & his parents saw James Bond.
Friday the rain had stopped, but it was still very cloudy. We hiked to some arches and saw the northern part of the park. It was fun to see the park partly covered in clouds, it brought a whole new dimension. We ate pizza at Zax (again, very good food).

Saturday was our final day of vacation and the sun was out & bright! We hiked to the windows, double arch and the others in the lower part of the park. It was outstanding! We had the best time and loved all of the climbing and hiking. We went to Green River and ate at Ray's Tavern (it was then we realized that everywhere we ate - except Denny's - was a bar). Very yummy hamburgers!


We had the most fun and loved our little holiday vacation!

Ditto on the background. No more ouchy eyes. Thanks again for including us on your Thanksgiving trek. The world was beautiful, intriguing and varied. The company, the best in Utah. And the food, pretty good too--even though we have discovered your penchant for BARS!! He he. Love ABA
