Star Gazing in Arches Park

There are other things still to blog about but I wanted to get this post out. After a dusk ATV ride Laurie and I drove back to Arches National Park around midnight to do some star gazing. The view was almost as good as the one at cousin Judy's place in Nevada. There was a little light from Moab but the Milky Way was clearly visible.

There was a very gentle breeze carrying just a hint of the day's heat and the usual desert low humidity. We sat in our camp chairs in the dark, the quiet, the gentle breeze and talked about how perfect it was to be spending our Saturday night there.

I played around with some star photography but did not get what I wanted. We had plans to do it again the next night but the weather did not cooperate. Oh well. But it was a wonderful time with Laurie.
