Every year for Thanksgiving, my boyfriend Eric takes the extra day or two off as an opportunity to go on a climbing trip. I wanted to go, but only for a couple days, so the dogs and I packed up the car and headed to Utah to meet up with Eric and our friends…

The road to Vegas and beyond!

Sadie wondering why I’m taking a picture of her instead of watching the road.

Daisy!

More desert and mountains… as in 4 hours of desert and mountains on the way to Vegas…

Zzyzx Road – One day I’ll take that exit to see what’s down there!

The world’s tallest thermometer in Baker.

Sadie second-guessing her idea to put her head out the window at 75 mph.

Why I love going downhill in a Prius… note the current mpg.

Best speed limit ever.

Cows in fields, cows on hills!

Snow in Utah.

Getting close to Orangeville!

Our exit! Finally!

On the way home…

Snowstorm!

Need Starbucks on a drive like this!

They slept *almost* the entire 10 hour drive home!

All photos taken by me from the car!

Our trip to Utah was fun. It was COLD (high 30s – low 40s) which is something I’m certainly not used to since I’ve lived in SoCal for the past couple years. We bundled up with our thermals and it wasn’t tooo bad. I got to do some climbing, and today I’m going for my first run in almost 5 weeks! I think it’s only gonna be a couple miles, but yay anyway I’m hoping to be ready for LA, but I’m not so sure… I turn in my paperwork to officially commit with TNT in a couple weeks, and I’m nervous! My longest run before the marathon might be just 17 miles…

Here are some pictures from the trip… nothing too exciting – it’s Utah, remember??

This is the only article of clothing that we have for Daisy, and believe me, she needed it!
