Ending the same way we started!

We drove back to Breck that afternoon/evening and stopped at a restaurant (Glenwood Springs) that was 'a great bbq place' according to the grandparents.  It was called Rib City and funnily enough we had stopped at a Rib City in Fruita on the way out to Utah this trip.  They didn't realize until we had sat down and ordered the same 'dinosaur chicken bites' for the kids.  We all had a good laugh!  Matter of fact it's a pretty good bbq place.  The catfish and ribs were yummy!
The next morning we stopped at Daylight Donuts (we started there right before our trip the previous week) for a refill of buttermilk donuts and a shared egg burrito.  I normally like change but these stops were both worth redoing!
It was a good thing we filled up since we had a snowy drive home.  We had to get off the highway at Berthoud and take HWY 287 home due to the number of accidents that had closed I-25.

Arches, Camping, Biking, and Hiking for Spring Break

 
The family headed out to Arches National Park in Utah for Spring Break this year.   There had been constant chatter leading up to this vacation.  Maps had been scrutinized many times over.  The excitement was palpable.
After spending a night in Breck to pick up our other passengers we headed out into quite a snowstorm.  The first two pictures depict this.  We were really wondering about 'camping' at this point.  The last pic is on our way back home.  We did end up having great weather while we were in Utah.
This is a mandatory stop for the kids:
