The snap shot of Wanda looking through the arch was taken on the Delicate Arch trail in Arches National Park. The other photos were taken in a canyon well outside of the national parks.

We had temps in the mid 90's. It is a dry heat which makes it easier to deal with if you drink plenty of water.

Go have some fun.

Bill, are these made in Arches Park? We are leaving Sunday heading West and might get to Moab. How hot was it, looks like 100 is the norm.

Nicely done.
Maybe one day your daughter will reflect on what a really great place Arches is and return on her own. That's what I did and I had a great time on my return, "grown up" visit to the park. :)
Regards,
David

Great photography Bill. You and Wanda are fortunate to have such great scenery to enjoy. Keep up the good work.

Here's hoping that Mickey D doesn't sue you for trademark infringement. I'm also picturing Wanda forming a 3rd arch between the two in the photos.
