Celebrating your birthday in this spectacular place...what a blessing. Yes, we finally made it to Utah. We arrived about noon without any further vehicle problems. PTL. We have about 10# of literature on this area. So much to see, so little time. After a conversation with the campground host, we have a plan. This afternoon we took a scenic drive about 20 miles along the Colorado River. We rode between such beautiful red rock formations. They were 'ginormous.' We stopped to take pictures and even made a stop at a winery located right on the river beneath the shadow of the rocks. There were some vintage auto enthusiasts staying at the resort. J had a great time inquiring about the cars. Very impressive!!!!!!
We stopped in downtown Moab to do some 'lookin.' There was a shop advertised in the local shops literature that had intrigued us. It was the 'Moab Dirt Shirt Shop.' Since P had such difficulty keeping little smudges from finding their way on to his clothing, I was thinking a 'dirt shirt' was just the ticket. The fabric from which the shirts are constructed is dyed with Moab red dirt. They were sort of novel, but on second thought, maybe we'll keep looking for a suitable souvenir shirt :)
Tonight we will feast on K's delicious Teriyaki Marinated Salmon, Israeli Couscous, and Baby Lima Beans. What a birthday feast for P. More to follow.
I totally agree that a new shirt is a must. Maybe you could dye the shirt you have on. I think that is a great idea. On second thought, orange would look very good on him. I am so excited that there is HOPE that Dad will find a new shirt.
