Over spring break in 2021 (just shy of 2 years ago now) we took a road trip through Southern Utah and into Arizona and Colorado. I’ve loooong wanted to take the kids down to Monument Valley, where I spent a semester in college. But it’s so far out of the way of anything I could never figure out a way to talk Wyatt into it. Finally that Spring I kinda just said “I’m going, if you want to come with me you can.”
The truth is this trip wasn’t very much fun for me. In fact, it was actually very painful. Most of the days were stressful and I remember Wyatt and I fought quite a bit, and there were lots of hours spent avoiding each other and me just crying while I stared out the window.
It’s just been in the past few weeks that I’ve even looked back at the pictures and footage I took. I made this little video of the trip because I think it’s probably only a bad memory for me. I don’t think the kids really loved the trip, but I don’t think they hated it either.
So anyhoo, here’s the video.
