We just got back from a trip to the desert over spring break. We spent 3 days in Canyonlands and stopped in Arches to hike to delicate arch on the way home. A thoroughly satisfying trip.
Cash spent half the time "just digging up nothing and burying nothing" with the camp shovel. Sage was fantastic on her bike. Cooper was running a fever the whole time and we didn't know it. They were all pretty good in the car and the Easter Bunny got our note and came to our campsite.
I love the desert!
