Matt had spring break this past week and we decided last minute to take a short inexpensive vacation. So I planned us a trip to Capitol Reef. We just stayed at the Days inn in Torrey, UT just 10 min out of the national park. The first day we got there we rested in our room then we went on a short hike on the Grand Wash trail. We probably made it a mile and half round trip because Cohen was more excited about exploring everything. We didn't see much that hike, but it was what it was, Cohen just was trying to figure out his boundaries the whole hike. That night we are dinner at a place called The Patio. It was okay, the service was interesting(not that great). Saturday we drove an hour and a half south to the Grand Stair Case in Escalante National Forest. It was an unbelievable site driving at the top. We hiked 3 miles to Lower Calf Creek Falls, well I will just say it was not the easiest, especially since Matt was holding Cohen most of the time in a carrier on his back and I was holding Kaia in a carrier on my front. The hike was cool though, and the destination was amazing! The 3 mile hike back we hiked out way faster, since both kids were asleep. After hiking we drove 20 min to Boulder, UT where we are at Hell's backbone grill. It a was a fine dinning place. The good was good but I think a little over prices. In the middle of dinner Matt left to the restroom, Cohen got up and went outside on the patio. I figured since no one was out there he would be fine and Matt could get him. Well Matt came back and went out there to get Cohen and he found Cohen with his pants down to his ankles and about ready to pee off the deck. Funniest part the patio was on the front part of the restaurant with windows all around so everyone eating inside could see him, and yes they were all watching and laughing. After dinner we headed back to the hotel and went swimming. It was such an enjoyable day just very tiring. Sunday we had a relaxing morning went back to Capital Reef to take pictures of some of the famous sites. After we drove into Torrey and ate lunch at Slackers. It was on the top 10 list of best drive-ins in Utah. Their Slacker special chicken sandwich was the bomb. Then we drove home, this short inexpensive vacation was very fun and the best way to have spent Matt's spring break.
