Family Road Trip

Last week brought weather that is, well not uncommon for April in Southern Utah. Towards the end of March we were seeing days with sun and temps near 80 here but las week brought us rain, cold and snow. I was so done with this weather come Saturday and wasn't going to let it keep me in doors so I told the family we were going for a road trip! We left the house not really sure where we were going, headed north and decided to head out toward the sand dunes. I was think Keri hadn't seen them and it would be cool to see. As we drove out there it became evident the all we were going to see is white, but I thought lets just enjoy the drive. I had heard that the road goes all the way through to 389, which is the road to St George, and I knew my pregnant wife would love a Jimmy Johns!! So we kept going all of a sudden the nice paved road turned to dirt, which in those weather conditions ment Mud!! We quickly pulled out the GPS and when it eventually loaded the maps it confirmed that yes that was indeed the road to 389. So I said lets go and I got cheers from Keri and David, Steven however wasn't quite sure he was comfortable with seeing walls of liquid mud flying 10ft in the air passed his window. He eventually warmed up to the idea and it was a fun family adventure. Here is the route we took:
