Biking in the Desert

 

 I wanted to share some photos that we took on our trip. We stopped at Arches National Park in Utah and stayed the night at a camp ground. We brought the bikes along as we thought it would be fun to ride them in the desert. Skip didn't have as much of a problem with the hills as I did.

 

 And here I thought I was in great shape since I've been working out and riding the bike since March, but I was wrong couldn't handle some of those hills. I felt better after talking to my friend Kat. She said it wasn't me it was the altitude. We were at about 5000 ft. Which is a big difference from the 1000 ft here in Ohio.

 

 Yay on the bike and riding!

 

 Beautiful view of our campsite. It was wonderful. There was a space to park each vehicle, and each site had a fire pit, picnic table and shade trees. We were lucky as the night we stayed there was a full moon. So peaceful!

Since I'm talking about biking......I decided to make this card. Stamp set is from the Tim Holtz collection, called Playful Journey. What a great word stamp perfect for this trip. Colors, cream, Early Espresso, Marina Mist, and Baja Breeze.

I'll be posting more pics soon.
