Waking up to this

This is the view out of the our room. It is absolutely amazing. There is a great little patio with dining set and lounge chair out there. It is actually where I had my coffee this morning. How cool is that!! I am absolutely in love with this place.

After breakfast we headed into Arches Park and did a 4 mile hike out to the Double O Arch. It is an amazing hike. It is listed for intermediate/advance hikers. There were some scary parts. I do feel like I am getting stronger. I even remembered to breath correctly Jenn and it did make a difference.



As you can tell Scotty Pippen was having a blast on the way to Double O Arch. He is being such a trooper. He is keeping up with Roger and I even though he is not a huge fan of the hot weather but he is great.

After Double O we grabbed a quick lunch and then ran back to the hotel for a quick nap before we hiked the Firely Furnace. Another difficult hike. This one is through lots of rock formations that are high and SKINNY. Lots of places were we were scaling the rocks like spiderwoman. Couldn't get lots of pictures because you really needed both hands available at all times.

This trip is making me feel so so strong. I never thought I would be able to do half of what I am doing. I am really feeling good about getting healthy. I want to start some weight training when I get home. Get good and strong for next year. Then I will just amaze myself with what I can do. Watch out for me!

here are some photos from today...... enjoy
