Moab, Utah July 2

July 2 -today we checked out Arches National Park, hiking a little, and deciding what we wanted to do on our next trip with Buddy, who is flying in on July 4. We've got two great hikes picked out. We may do one, may do them both. After the day at the park, it was more pool time.

Another triple digit day!  7:17 pm and it's STILL 100!!!
