When we went to Moab mid-August, we were sort of in between giant storms/floods: two had already happened and the third was yet to come. There had been some rains, though, which caused some smaller washouts along the bike path again. And the weeds in the yard were definitely enjoying the additional moisture.
We got down there Thursday night and squeezed in a fifty minute walk before stopping at Woody's for a beer (karaoke night, fwiw). On both Friday and Saturday, A and M headed off to Millcreek for the usual loop: out along the rim trail, drop down about halfway up and follow the creek back down. It was still cool in the morning shade and Milton made sure to get some crazy on, splashing through the creek.
In addition, on Friday, H did a six mile trail run and A did the 21-ish mile road ride on the bike path. There were several instances of having to get off the bike due to deep sand, including some new spots on the upper part of the path, heading out towards Arches National Park. On Saturday, both H and A did that ride. The sand was still there.
Sunday meant chores. H went above and beyond too, scraping, priming and painting all the doorways where the original paint was peeling from rain backsplash. That was sweaty, as the day wore on, but it looks so much better now.
