Goblin Valley and Capitol Reef

So for Memorial day we went down to Goblin Valley and Capitol Reef with Paul's parents and brother.  We found a nice place to camp in Hanksville.  The campground had bathrooms, showers and food close by.  My kind of camping! First day there we just ate at the restaurant there and set up camp.  Paul, Christian and I took some pics around the campground, Planking....

 My first planking attempt

 Paul's turned out really well

Next day we went to Goblin Valley to see the goblins and go on a little hike up some slot canyons.

 Some more planking on the goblins

 A view from a top the goblins...these are pretty neat.  When it rains this all fills in with water and forms these rocks.  There can be flash floods too, even if it was raining like 30 miles away.

on the hike, through some slots, it got a lot tighter than this.

The next day we went to Capitol Reef, it was a Sunday, so we just strolled around and saw some sites.  I had a migraine this day, so I didn't get my camera out at all.  Sorry! It was really windy this day also, so it was hard to be outside.  The wind ended up breaking out tent pole, so we slept in the tent trailer the last night.

  

We headed back the next day and the power was out in all southern Utah, so we had to just hang out for a little while in Springville so we could get gas before we headed home.  Overall, the trip was a lot of fun, Thanks Rick and Marianne (Mom and Dad)
