Day 4

Thursday July 2nd, 2009

* Woke up only to have a chance sighting of a boy on a unicycle. Nate saw him coming and saw the crash a second later and the boy running away with the unicycle in hand. I was inside the tent and Austin just outside it...."there's a boy on a unicycle...(crashhhing sound). I dont know who it was funnier for, nate and austin who saw the whole thing, or me in the tent just knowing and then hearing the horrific crash a second later

*Hiked to Alberta Falls which was a gigantic waterfall with tons of large rocks to climb on

*Drove through Rocky Mountain National Park. the highest point we reached was 12,000 ft above sea level which made us sort of dizzy and short of breath....but it was beautiful. we were so high austin got to play in the snow at the top

* Drove southwest heading to Utah on I-70 and saw Glenwood Canyon which was completely  amazing. It looked like the interstate was going through south america for a minute

*Stopped in Fruita, CO for pizza and dinosaur hunting....apparently the town has a dinosaur theme as they were everywhere

*Arrived in Salina, UT and got a Super 8 hotel room which turned out to be the best hotel room yet...it had a hot tub. Go super 8, go. i assumed they were all disgusting really.
