In the words of Adrian Cronauer, “it’s damn hot.”

The heat, the moods, a pre-Moab Herc break-down, an upon-arrival electrical shortage (no AC), two hour traffic jam, and a trip that altogether felt on the fritz made it truly hard for us, each of us to enjoy the insanity and uniqueness that is Moab, Arches, Canyonlands, and the area. So, we shall return. We don’t have it in us. We need a do-over.

Yet as it goes with each place we’ve been, it was a treat to have some friends along for the ride with us even if for a “damn hot” dinner-less, traffic-jammed, blown-electricity moment in our trip.

Please let this be the bottom.
