This year's big trip was to Escalante Utah, and lasted 1 week. Nan and Phil brought Finnigan, their 8 year old goat, and 2 trainees, Scout and Sonic. My big goat, Barry Goatalo, had a bit of a limp so I had to take Woodstock (9) and King George (2.5). I bought George from Nan a couple years back, and George needed some packing experience. He'd only worn his training pack twice, and the first time was a rodeo. He'd never spend an over-night nor been away from his sister Butterfly, so this was a big trip for him.
Of course we got some pickle pie in Bicknell on the way down.
You can get a sense for the weather-- Giant storm cells in all directions. We just did a short 2 mile for-fun walk to the edge of a canyon on day 1. We were car-camping so we still had to set up and only had a couple hours. The photos and scenery were epic, though, with the storms in the distance.
The place was lousy with Moki Marbles. They're iron-rich hollow spheres.

I don't drink beer, but if I did, I'd prefer Dos Equis. Stay thirsty my friends!
