Our Trip To The West – Day #3 – Arches National Park

For our third day of the trip, we left Southwestern Colorado and ventured into Southeastern Utah, near Moab, where we explored Arches National Park. Arches National Park boasts of 76,518 acres of beautiful natural sandstone arches, geological wonders and gorgeous landscapes. It takes a little over 2 hours to go from Grand Junction, CO to Moab, Utah, where Arches is located. So we packed everything back up into the car to get to our next destination and we were on the road again.

Arches National Park is just as gorgeous and just as impressive as Colorado National Monument, but it’s bigger, so there is even more to see. Arches is about 3x the size of Colorado National Monument. Again, our day was filled with driving around the park, getting out for hikes all around, taking a bazillion gorgeous pictures and a picnic lunch with a beautiful vista. What a way to enjoy life and commune with God and nature, right?!

Once again, pictures just don’t do this magnificent park justice. And again God and Mother Nature painted a beautiful, colorful mural of natural beauty. We were all awestruck. It was absolutely breathtaking.

I will leave it here since there is no way I can show you everything. Once again, I am NOT going to share all of the pictures I took. It’s would be too overwhelming. The best way to experience Arches is to actually go and see it for yourself. It is truly a magical place.

Color your world beautiful and take in as much beauty as you can. We live in a very beautiful world. We just have to allow ourselves to see it and take it all in. Have a great day and make everyday great. Stay safe and stay well. ‘Til next time.
