beautiful utah

so I have probably driven through utah at least two other times before today and never did i realize the natural beauty that exists there!
we woke up to snow so decided to sleep in a little until the plows could get to the streets. we were both really happy to be leaving the hole of a hotel we stayed in the night before! i got my first hard rock cafe shirt that i needed, for those who don't know i collect the shirts from the cafes and plan to one day frame them and hang them on the wall of the house that i will own...one day 80)
chris slept most of the day in the car since he wasn't feeling well which allowed me to get lost in my thoughts...it hit me today that i am homeless. i've always wanted to pick up everything i owned and just hit the road and that is exactly what i am doing...what an amazing feeling! but at the same time i realized that home has become my car, which is now gray instead of blue and black, and which hotel i check into next, which based on where i stayed last night wasn't any place good. but life on the road definitely isn't too bad, you are in a different city each night...you see everything the country has to offer and lucky for me i'm only a few hours away from good friends and family from here on out! happiness is!
i decided to take a side trip to the arches national park in eastern utah and am so glad i did. the red rock was beautiful! my only regret is that we didn't get there sooner to take the hike through the devils garden, but the sights along the drive were well worth the price!
we've stopped in grand junction colorado for the night...highway 70 is too dark at night and chris still isn't feeing well. we were picker tonight in picking a hotel so hopefully i will get a good night sleep! tomorrow boulder 80)
