Cheap camping along the Colorado River. Sunset from the Delicate Arch viewpoint. A full morning of hiking in the blasting heat and photographing rock. Swimming in a manmade lake in the middle of the desert. Afternoon light in the park. Sunset in front of Delicate Arch.

48º C outside temperatures on the drive to the park. Late night cooling from the day in the car and finally learning more than the 3 obvious constellations. Early morning wandering and photo taking. Searching in vain for the Iron Door Cave. Crawling into caves to beat the heat. Public Library internet time and Walmart Wandering. How are we still not used to this heat?
