Early father's day....

My kind wife let me and a buddy get away last week. We wanted to hike the Black Hole but the 30% chance of rain scared us out of walking down a slot canyon that drains large swaths of land. So, instead we left for Moab early in the morning. Rode on the surreal terrain of Slickrock. Rode into Dead Horse Point, and saw a fascinating interaction between a ladybug, lizard and hummingbird. Saw "Indian Writing". Climbed a crazy (too much run out) slab at Wallstreet. Played Disc Golf at a brand new 18 hole course. That was the first day. Exhausting and awesome.

The next day we went to an Ultimate Hat Tournament. We played some nice Goaltimate (although the hoop was slightly oversized). Then we split up into teams, and played some 5 games. Twas fun. The parks/fields in Moab are super plush and green. (Much nicer than in Salt Lake.) I forgot how much stuff there is to do around Moab....

Now I need to find a way to pay back the wife....
