Arches Winter vacation Part I

For Jim's birthday this year we decided to save up some money and go to his favorite place in the world Arches National Park. Their average temperatures in the winter is 60 F, but of course not when we were there. At that time we all had a huge storm rolling in and it was in the 40 ies, still better then freezing Salt Lake Area. We booked an inexpensive hotel in advance and agreed on the conditions of not being able to cancel it to get the best price. That being said, right before we had to leave we found out that I had Strep and that there was a good chance that all of us would get it. In a haste to get antibiotics during the holidays and getting ready we still went on a 4 hour road trip to the arches. Despite of sickness which kids got too, we had fun. Arches still amazes us and impresses us with it's majestic beauty. We have to go there again when it is little bit warmer we said.
