Death By Sandpaper

Well, here we are in Moab. Natalie and I. We've accomplished an unimaginable amount of fun already. Which is probably why we were okay with taking a three hour nap this afternoon at the campground. Yesterday there was Kranky Franks, Milts, a new campground, and the unsuccessful quest for mallow sticks. Last night. How to sum that up in one word...death by sandpaper. Winds gusting as high as 2000 miles per hour combined with tent slumber (or lack thereof) made for a lot of laughing and not much sleeping. Thank goodness for laptops. We watched "Into the Wild". Camping just isn't what it used to be. I like that. The fun didn't stop there. Today we hiked to Delicate Arch, took the customary tourist pictures, and watched a couple get engaged under the arch...no big deal. I can say for certain that was the first time I have cried at a strangers marriage proposal. We were so touched that we felt it necessary to take a picture with Mr. and Mrs. Happily Ever After. They were great. The only act that could follow up something like that was a bacon cheeseburger from Milt's.
