Arches National Monument - Moab, UT

Sunset from the top of our RV!

After an $11 stop to dump and take on water in Blanding, UT, we headed for Moab, UT.  Years ago, we stayed at the Gonzo Inn in Moab and really enjoyed it.  So since it was raining, a pretty rare occurrence here, we stopped for lunch.  Deb wanted Mexican food.  According to Trip Advisor, there were 11 Mexican Restaurants in Moab.  We choose The Moab Diner, which turned out not to be really Mexican, but as you looked, each item on the menu was how a Mexican might make it.  I had a Melt, which had chili instead of cheese on it.  Deb had a Navajo Taco which turned out to be large fry bread with chili on it.  It was excellent, but we will have a small dinner tonight..

 It was a good thing that we went to Natural Bridges first.  The arches here dwarf anything we have seen before.  We spent the day, on the 17 mile road which with dozens of outlooks and short hikes got us to The Devil's Garden...our stop for the night (site 32).  We are still dry camping with no water or dump site.  From the campground, it's a short bike ride to the trail head where we hiked in to see Landscape Arch, a very long, very thin arch.  It looks like it will collapse very soon.  The rain finally stopped, but not without one little downpour, as we were biking back to the site.  In the morning we will go to see Delicate Arch before heading to Colorado.
