Southern Utah Drive

>> Tuesday, September 30, 2008


Over the weekend, the stars aligned and JP and I took our long awaited day trip to Utah. Nothing compares to the red rocks of southern Utah. The land there is awe-inspiring. Before I moved out here, I never understood why people lived in the Southwest. Wasn't it just hot desert wasteland? Now I know better because I've been there.




best memories:

1. soft red soil
2. raindrops in my hair
3. flowing water
4. yellow-lit vistas
5. towering red cliffs
6. cool breezes
7. deserted roads
8. taking the long way
9. feeling surrounded by magic
10. experiencing mother earth at her best

Even though she tires of it at times, there are so many things this East coast girl has to be greatful for in her Southwestern life.
