Jeep Trip!

Michael was able to go on a three day Jeep trip with my dad, Tona, Ben and Tim.  Click photo to see pictures:
Jeep Trip
He had a blast!  They played in the Colorado River, drove in very precarious places and laughed a lot of the time.  It was a great trip. (Michael here: it was absolutely beautiful. Lots of rugged, bouncin', cliff-defying, off-roading. We went to the Dollhouse - a fascinating group of monolithic spires, cliffs, and boulders from the Cedar Mesa Formation in the Maze district of Canyonlands.  From a distance it looks like a house or castle. You can only get there with a 4x4 vehicle, via the river, or a really really long walk. We ran around in the shallows of the icy Colorado going "Whooo Whooo Whooo" because it was so cold and had fun skipping a frisbee off the surface of the water. We also brought Tona's mountain bike that I had fun with on the rocky and rugged jeep road as we started heading back. I guess the best part was talking with the Nielsens. Lots of fun.)

Nice variety of jeep trip photos. That one with Michael in shades makes him look like a model. I love the rock shapes. The one where the shadows merge with the background of the photo looks really emphasizes the shape of the sunny part.
