Its been a long time!!!



Well, it has been a long time since i sat down and wrote a post but my up coming transition has inspired me to write again. I have been in Moab since August and the time here has been delightful. The red rock country is beautiful and now that the heat of the desert has lessened in intensity I can explore some of the trails and endless open space in the desert. It never ceases to amaze me how everyday can be so nice around here, even the really rainy ones that come through to break up the sunny days. I have been given the chance to take some time off working and relax here in Moab, one thing i have learned during this time is that i really enjoy having a purpose, something to work towards or work at so while this time has been a blessing it has also left me restless for the next thing. 
What is the next thing? A trip to Guatemala is in our future!!! John's work ends in the beginning of Nov. and we are driving to Detroit where Mason gets to spend the months of Nov. and Dec. with John's parents!!! They have to kindly offered to take him while we go to Guatemala and study spanish!! I have been wanting to do this for a while so I am very excited that the time has presented itself. We will keep this posting during our travels as a way to share the experience with everyone. Until then the pictures are from some of our recent adventures... Westwater Canyon Rafting and John's 24 hours of Moab Mountain bike race.
Happy fall
