Matt's Adventures (while Kristin is away)

So Kristin and the girls are with Grandma in California. This gives me time to reflect on how awesome they are, how much Kristin really does around the house (it is a lot), and a slice of time to have adventures. This last weekend my dad, brother, niece, and myself headed off to Goblin Valley. It was cold at night but we had fun. We had a fox visit us in the night and was cute till he destroyed our garbage at 5:00 am and I couldn't go back to sleep. Hiking through the goblins was fun as always and then we headed out Little Wild Horse canyon.

I had fun taking some night pictures and then my battery died. I will have to update the post when I get some of the photos from my brothers camera. (for the photographers... these were all 30 second exposures the one with the tent in it we light painted the cliffs with a flashlight. The fox is obviously not a long exposure.)

Once the moon came out my brother (Mike) and I walked down the canyon to check things out and to take some pictures. We were both amazed when the pictures came out looking so good. I love how clearly you can see the constellation Orion.
