MOAB UTAH

What a wonderful surprise - Moab was the greatest experience - we stayed at a condo with friends from New York -Sam and Maryanne - and were south of the city. Visited all the national parks and state parks in the area. We were awed by the views. The weather was great. Ate at a Thai restaurant every day.
Put this area on your must see list. Arches National Park , Canyonlands National Park, Dead Horse Point State Park, plus so much more. There are plenty of websites on the internet that can aid in your planning an itinery.

Other points of interest on our recent trip - Albuquerque New Mexico and the scenic drive from there to Moab - the drive on US 70 from Utah to Denver - awesome -
the Capulin Volcano National Monument in New Mexico.
