Ran some of the Park City Marathon trail with RAD (the end of it).  MR was a good water boy and helped us spot some good treasures!

Feeling Foxy?

 

Skunk.  Was it one that had it's head cut in half, or two separate heads?  I'm not sure I want to find out.

 

Then MR and I rode our bikes from the hotel in Kimball Junction up to Park City and back.  Got a nice rainy ride in on the way back.  Other than making the trail a little slippery, it was pretty nice.

Hiked Timpanogos with Bye-Wing's family.  Always impressive, and a good workout to boot!

Happy Birthday to RAD's little guy today!

Wonderful run on the Lehi JRP with a beautiful group of women- and MR too!

Wendy, RAD, Becca and Smooth kept me going :-)

They even helped me find my treasure for the day :-)

 

After a great run, RAD rode out to the north end of the trail with us, and then she took off for home and MR and I rode back to the car.  It is beautiful out there on that trail.  We rode around 11 miles total.

A few hours later we hiked Red Butte's trails.  Not sure on the distance, but they were nice trails and not too difficult.  Love the gardens and all the flowers & trees.

Went for a bike ride with MR in Green River.   Explored around town, rode up to the big white block statue trying to figure out what it was for....at the top of the hill, there are no answers.  But there is a pretty good view of the little town.

We rode out of town and past lots of fields, when MR got a flat tire.  3 thorns in the tube.  That extra tube we had was still in the car, and  rather unhelpful.  So I rode back and got the car and picked up MR before heading back to the campground.

Treasures we found:  Lifeguard Jim, a license plate on the side of the road, the longest horns on a longhorn cow I've even seen, and Pirate Drive.  I didn't know until the next day that the school mascot for Green River High School is the Pirate.  I feel like I'm at home!

Woke up and went for a 4 mile run in Green River.  Found the High School at the end of Pirate Drive!

Hiked all over Arches today.  Wore the Garmin and we totaled just over 11 miles for the day.  We were glad we had nice air mattresses to sleep on and rest for the night.

Went on a 3 mile hike at Arches before driving to Goblin Valley and hiked another 6 there.  Our legs & feet were so tired & worn out by the end.  20 miles of hiking in 2 days.

Quick bike ride, set up camp, showered, and had dinner.  Then we went for another longer bike ride as the sun was setting.  Awesome lightening show in the distance before bed.

One more shorter hike in Goblin Valley before driving home.  Took the long route home & went through Delta.
