So this past weekend I went to Arches for a fun trip. I was planning on taking a lot of pictures but with my luck it started pouring shortly after I got there and rained for the rest of the time I was there. I still went hiking which was very fun especially with the rain! 


This is a picture of Double Arch. I love this arch it is so cool, especially because you can climb up to it. I tried to fit it all in but it is extremely difficult.


It started raining at Double Arch. The past three times I have been there it rained once I went to that Arch, which is a little strange. So if you want rain then go to Double Arch.


This Arch is called Turret Arch, it is over by the Windows Arches. I think it is cool.


And these are the beautiful puffy white clouds, this is what they looked like right before the rain came to where I was. I thought they were very pretty.


This is just a picture of it raining a few miles away, and then a few minutes later it all came to where I was.


And finally, this is my friend Mr. Grasshopper. I was stopped at the gas station and saw something jump up in front of my windshield but I wasn't sure what it was so I just ignored it. Well a few seconds later as I was driving down the road this is what I saw. This was literally one of the biggest grasshoppers I have ever seen and I thought he was so pretty too, so I just had to take a picture to show everyone. He rode with me for a few miles on the windshield wiper and then I pulled over to try to take a better picture and when I did he jumped off. It was bizarre but really cool too. I like my new friend Mr. Grasshopper.  :)
