What started out as a Sam and Holly 100 mile bike ride with friends turned into a family "classic" vacation. This past weekend the
6Clarks, Banks, Andersons and Whites went to Moab for a few days on the slick rock. The guys (including Eric R) took off Friday morning and had their little testosterone driven ride on the Slickrock and Amasa Back trails. It turns out the only one who would bleed his own blood was Sam.
Apparently he misjudged a jump and ended up sliding on his belly on the sandstone. Luckily there was no harm done! The only "real" close call was he misjudged his water consumption and ended up drinking all his water at about the halfway point. This is not good, especially on a VERY HOT Moab day. The ladies joined up with
the kids Friday night and that is when the real party started. Saturday the ladies went for an Estrogen driven road bike ride while the guys took the kids swimming. The rest of the weekend consisted of hanging out, eating, swimming, eating, eating, hiking, and more eating. On the way home the entire group stopped at the Delicate Arch and Sanddune arch for a little hiking and family photos. It is soooooo much work getting ready for a short weekend trip with the kids, but it is always worth it. The kids had a great time with their friends and can't wait to do it again. Special thanks to Uncle Louis and Chriss for the use of their Condo.
