We Survived!!! Day #1 Moab!!


After a quick breakfast at McDonalds we were all very excited to get on the road. So we headed out to Canyonlands. When we got there we found out that the campground we were suppose to stay at was closed because of quicksand. So we ended up having to leave the trucks in the parking lot and load everything we could into the jeeps for the trip over Elephant Hill. But the jeeps weren't big enough and Riley and Jeff ended up making a 2nd trip to get the rest of our bedding.




Riley and I took our Jeep down but the rest of the Family had to rent them and they had to fight over who got the red one!!! hee hee hee. They were all red so we ended up renaming our jeep this weekend to "The Black Sheep." (all of our cars were named by Riley's niece Gracie, but after Moab we had to change the Jeeps)





This was our Campground! Those beds on the ground are where Riley and I slept. That was a very long night. The wind blew all night long and we were covered in sand. But it was an experience to remember. We of course had way to much food for the 2 days, 1 night we were camping, we always eat a lot better when we are camping then we do at home. Not sure why that is =)!!!
