Well it was about time for my family and I to get out of town for more than a day. With work and other obligations it can be hard to make time to go out and play. I took time off over a month ago, and started to think of places we could go. We thought of San Diego, Yosemite, Devils Tower, Denver and so many more. But we couldn’t pick a place. Each day would pass and my wife and I would ask each other, “have you figured out where we are going?’ It came down to the night before we left that we figured we would head down to Capital Reef National Park. We thought this would be close enough that the two kids wouldn’t die in the car ride.
Day 1 was a pretty boring day. we loaded up the car and headed to the park. After a four hour drive we were checking in to our hotel. We stayed at the Rim Rock Inn, in Torrey, UT. This was right outside of the park and made a great basecamp for our adventures for the week. The view from our room was amazing.
We also chose the Inn because it does offer a complimentary breakfast. After unpacking, we headed into town to get us some dinner and went to a place called Chillzz Malt Shoppe. The food was good and the owners were super friendly. They have burgers and pizza. They do have a pool table and some arcades to play while you there.
After some food we headed back to get some rest for the coming day.
