Capital Reef National Park




It still amazes me that we can drive 5 hours west of Colorado and the topography changes so drastically. We were in awe of the immense red cliffs towering over us and all the different layers of colors.. from stark white to this deep red to almost a gray clay.. We stayed in Bicknell a 6 mile drive from the park, but next time I would love to stay in Torrey.. that's where we found a great pizza place and a little book store where we had some coffee, lunch and just relaxed on the patio. Our motel was ...OK.. next year definitely a motel with a pool!!! It was so hot all day, but for me the humidity really was no fun.. Lilja did great, until the evenings.. one night again she threw up.. and our welcome home was another throw-up session.. I think the heat got to her and I am glad we are home for a couple of days.. in cool, dry Colorado!!!

Lilja is drinking out of a straw now.. she thought she was such a big girl.. we took the Bumbo with us to the restaurant.. we just sat her on top of the table.. so easy and clean!!
