Goblin Valley State Park and Capitol Reef

I took a day off mid-week and we went to the other-worldly Goblin Valley State Park and the beautiful Capitol Reef National Park!

Arches National Park

On Wednesday I took a day off of work and we got up super early to make sure that we got into Arches National Park - it was freezing! 

We have been so excited to see Delicate Arch for the longest time!

It didn't disappoint! But we were so tired and so we took a little nap in the car...:)

And spent the rest of the day exploring the park...

Double Arch!

Balanced Rock!

Turret Arch!

It was incredible:)

It’s Utah time!

After working from home for over 19 months I was starting to get a bit stir crazy so when Disney announced that we won't be back in person until Jan (at the soonest) - we decided to relocate for a couple of weeks out West:). We picked Moab since there are so many National Parks close by and  

found an amazing Airbnb that I could work from. It's 2 hours behind too so we figured we'd be able to do things in the evenings while we were there and really make the most of our time in Utah. 

I packed my whole work set up and was online and functioning in under 10 minutes - it was great!

On the Sunday after we arrived we were amazed that Arches NP was full! I had no idea it was that busy! So we headed out to Canyonlands, and soaked in the La Sal mountains view on the way...

We stopped at Dead Horse Point State Park...

And saw the famous location where the car went over into the canyon in Thelma and Louise...

Then we headed over to the Island In the Sky region of Canyonlands National Park...our 24th North American NP!

It's just breathtaking. We loved the Mesa Arch hike :) 

We ended our first amazing day at Antica Forma for some incredible pizza:)

I had to work on Monday morning but had plenty of time in the evening to visit Moab Giants - the local dinosaur museum...

On Tuesday evening we did the amazing Corona Arch hike!
