Arches National Park ~ Day 1

My family is off on a trip to spend a week in Utah. Today we drove from Salt Lake City to Moab, which will be our home base for the next week. We had a little bit of time to take a quick look at Arches National Park. What a beautiful place! We didn't even go far enough to get close to any of the Arches today, but all of the red rock country is absolutely beautiful. Here are a few highlights from today, just a sneak peak of what's to come:

Tomorrow will be a full day there, so there will be more to come soon!

I was watching an excerpt from the movie, Baraka, just yesterday that featured the North and South Windows (from the reverse angle). I was wondering where it was, and your post by sheer coincidence just told me.
