Back in Moab

I arrived in Moab today around noon. It's a nice hot windy day. I feel like going swimming. This trip was made possible thanks to generous people who gave me a lift. Four in all. I'll have to update this post more later tho... I'm at the Library right now and I'd prefer to be outside :)

Moab and New Mexico

I left Salt Lake City a week ago and went to Moab with Sven and Brenna's Family. From there I found a ride to New Mexico (met a guy in Moab at a free lunch) and I'm staying with Jo for a few days. She is working near Cloudcroft, NM as a Wildlife Technician studying the Mexican Spotted Owl. It's a cool job where she lives in the woods. Now she has 5 days off and we're at her friend Kristy's house in El Paso. Today we're going to Carlsbad Caverns. I'm having a great time, and a much needed vacation.



Yesterday we went climbing, where Jo led some awesome hard routes and I could hardly follow. She's a great climber and I'm proud of my sister for all the great things she does in life.


This weekend is the ward Moab trip, so I'm going to hitch hike back to Moab on Friday and join them, where I'll catch a ride back to Salt Lake with the one and only Sara Barclay.



From there I'm staying in Salt Lake and working full time on some personal projects and necessary things. I'll be traveling to California a week later with my brother, hopefully. I want to meet some CouchSurfers down there, plus, a visit to the beach can't hurt either.
