It was long believed that the “Delicate Arch” near Moab, Utah was formed by natural erosion. Thankfully with modern science, we now know it was just the stapes ear bone of the giantess Moab herself.

Arches National Park

The park's arches and other formations were created over millions of years by erosion and weathering. Rainwater dissolves carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, creating carbonic acid, which reacts with the rock and breaks it down.

Westbound

The plan: Today we’ll catch a 12:42 p.m. flight - Detroit to Denver - for Lord Huron’s Wednesday show at Red Rocks in Morrison, followed, on Thursday night, by the band’s Fiddler’s Green show in Denver.

Assuming we make it past “Blucifer,” that menacing blue horse with the glowing eyes that guards the airport entrance, we’ll claim our rental car and begin a week or so of bumming around Out West.

On Friday morning we’ll light out for Moab, Utah to have a look at Arches and Canyonlands National Parks (Two more opportunities to flash my lifetime senior-citizen pass, which I bought for $10 about 10 years ago. Now they cost $80, which is still a bargain).

That's the official itinerary; no doubt there will be a surprise or two along the trail.

The only limits that exist are the ones in your own mind.

Opportunities don’t happen, you create them.
