This is one of those "my-grad-program-is-cooler-than-yours-posts." I'm sorry, but it's probably true. Last year, we had a program retreat at Sundance. This school year, we went to Moab! The last time I set foot in Moab was the weekend I got my mission call—another lifetime, basically.
Moab is a magical place where life on Mars almost becomes true. I love the adobe colored landscape, the awe-inspiring arch formations, and the adventure-is-out-there feel of the place.
^^Llama 1. Somehow our group was spoiled with the best activity schedule: hiking in the morning, rafting during in the hottest hours of the day, not having to clean up camp, and getting an extra Kip-exclusive hike in.
^^ Laughing at Travis' paparazzi attempts.
^^when camping gives you corn on the cob, use whatever resources you have and make elotes!
