They will specialize in finding peoples debits cards, and having to sell them back to the rightful owner.

Good to see you here. Thanks for commentin...Elijah! Good to see you here. Thanks for commenting, for reading, for being inspired! Glad to help pause the schooling--I know how that can be. Hope all is well with you guys.<br /><br />Heather, thanks for the kind kind words. I'd love to travel write, just to write in general. At least I get to do it a little bit. :) Hiking the additional three miles on my leg wasn't good for it, but it was worth it. And yes, I'd rather tear a muscle than plunge down a waterfall (but that's a great way to go). I don't think Edward Abbey writes about Little Wild Horse Canyon--not sure though--but I'm sure he would've! Thanks for the photo compliments, it's such beauty there. HEY I'm so glad you said you're coming! We didn't know if you were. A desert trip is most surely in the cards, for as long and as far as we want. Definitely. We're never too busy for it.<br /><br />Thanks everyone for the well wishes on my leg! It's getting better, but still pretty nasty. Huge fat green-purple knots where part of my muscle should be. Painful massaging, but getting much much better. At least I don't limp anymore.mattbeattyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14864581561711697380noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4850925522681981943.post-43145398341002882092010-03-23T11:17:18.087-07:002010-03-23T11:17:18.087-07:00wow mattie, what a place to get an injury! i love ...wow mattie, what a place to get an injury! i love that picture of you relaxing amongst the goblins with oey. can't believe you hiked 3 more miles, wonder if that was bad or good for it? i am glad that the result of your crazy antics is just a pulled muscle as opposed to a fall down a waterfall or cliff, my worst nightmare when beatty boys are around. <br /><br />these destinations are so incredible. does edward abbey write about wild horse canyon? cause it sounds familiar. i love the goblins so much, and that photos with the perfect layers and the one of the boys in the distance playing in the sand with the great scope of natural radness around them. i want to go to the desert! i've been craving it. i'm hoping for a quick jaunt to moab when addie and dad and i come out to see you guys. i know it's a busy time for you but i just need to get my fix. both of smith-beattys and of desert magic. <br /><br />and again i will say this: you are an excellent travel writer. it should be your job without a doubt. have adventures, take notes and then publish articles or books about them. i love how you include tidbits about the hotel...and its yucky breakfast, so descriptive!<br /><br />hooray for early camping trips. i can't wait for one myself in the warming sun. love and miss you guys. thanks for brightening my morning exponentially.moonshinejunkyardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02401889178583608877noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4850925522681981943.post-17921879351789180822010-03-23T11:11:56.379-07:002010-03-23T11:11:56.379-07:00You're such a good momma.

And although I'm not anywhere near as gutsy or outdoorsy brave as you all are--your adventures inspire me. I can always justify putting my law school studies on hold when you have a new post!

All we need is puzzle piece sand/mud for O to pull apart and big rocks to climb and our very own willy wonkas chocolate waterfall. Hope your leg gets better soon so we can go play.Amy Beattyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08449123714163750723noreply@blogger.com
