Through the desert, soon to the coast

Well, I got to Moab with no incident on Monday evening (after two very hot days of biking - went through more than 2 gallons of water each day), and spent the next few days baking in the desert sun along with Mitch, Amber, and Nate. Thursday, we came to Salt Lake City, where we are now. We've done some short hikes, a little bouldering, and had some time hanging out, but haven't done anything hugely impressive.

Last night we went to see the movie "Public Enemies" with Johnny Depp and Christian Bale. It wasn't very good/enjoyable, I didn't think; fairly disappointing.

We're spending the 4th with Nate's sister and brother-in-law and their two beautiful dogs (huskies). Later this evening - after some grilling, etc. - we will go to a minor league baseball game, and then finish the night out watching fireworks somewhere. It looks like tomorrow we'll just hang out after Mitch and Amber head out in the morning until our train leaves at 11:30pm. Nate and I are supposed to arrive in San Francisco then Monday evening around 6:00-ish, so it looks like we should be able to start our biking on Tuesday, wending our way down the coast to San Diego.

Ummm, yeah. Not a whole lot more to say. I might do some actual reflecting tomorrow, we'll see.
