We filled up with gas in Cameron, and the pumps shut off at $100. When we got to Moab, we filled up again. This is where the pumps shut off here. Luckily we were almost full at this point!
It is a lot of fun to ride in the motor home. It's really nice when you leave early in the morning and you can sleep! I will say, this baby rocks like you wouldn't believe. Poor Megan gets car sick really easily, but this time it really got her. Last night when we went to bed, I still felt the movement! Nate will testify that it is truly priceless to not have to stop for bathroom breaks. Riding with three females, he always has to stop more than he wants to! :)
We got our rented Jeeps last night! We did a favorite trail called Fins N Things. I wish the pictures would do it more justice. We are in the red Jeep and my brother is in the Yellow.
There are times when you are literally going straight down or straight up. It can be nerve wracking! When we went yesterday Sam wouldn't stop screaming that she was going to die, but she was the first to raise her hand and ask to go again today!
After we jeeped that trail, we took a hike trying to find a fun place named The Cowboys Bathtub. There is a lot of fun trails and water holes here to play in. We didn't find what we were looking for, but that's okay. I wish I could bottle up the smell in the air here. It is so yummy and fresh!
The boys took the Jeeps out again this morning. I guess Nate and Jeff were feeling a little spunky as they were racing down the trail. Nate bottomed out and bent up a shock. Good thing it's a rental! He did say it was awesome!
The girls headed over to the park where there was an art festival going on. Fun stuff! We found these bubble sticks for sale...
and we enjoyed homemade ice cream!
Nate is out Jeeping again. Gotta turn that in tonight. Hope they don't notice the shock....kids are running around, having fun with their cousins. I love to come to Moab, but it is so great when my whole family can be here together! It has been great fun to see everyone, catch up on news and tease each other!
*UPDATE* Nate tried to go Jeeping again this afternoon. Until the shock completely snapped. So the poor guy is out there right now replacing it. I'm glad he is handy and can fix things like that! I would hate to see how much the rental company would charge.

totally awesome! blogging from your vacation too! FABULOUS! funny about the shock. i'm sure Nate didn't love fixing it but handy skills are helpful.
Looks like the stories are already rolling in...Seriously, what good is a vacation without funny stories? I am going to have to talk Jared into the motor home idea when we go up to a family reunion in August. Looks fabulous. Have fun!
