Hiking at Arches

The last weekend that Romain was here we drove down to Moab so he could see Arches and Dead Horse Point, and the raw, natural beauty of our fine state. He really seemed to have fun hiking and scrambling up the rock formations. He said this was his favorite thing about his stay here in Utah. Friday morning he flew back home to France, and it was kind of sad to say goodbye. But he is going to be an airline pilot, so he could really come and visit us whenever he feels like, I suppose. We are really glad we had him here, and we hope to see him again someday! Romain, you rock!

Check it out! That's me with my new friend, Rick Springfield! We went to his concert in Wedover, and bumped into him on the elevator, not once, but twice! But, you know, Wendover is a pretty small town, and there's only like one hotel there pretty much, so I guess the odds aren't that bad that we should bump into him, but still......it was way fun to meet him. I'm not sure, but I think he may have a restraining order out against me!

This is our French foreign exchange student, Romain. We took him to the UBIC out in our hometown of Roosevelt, and saw a concert in the park. It doesn't get much more exciting than that! We have also had fun taking him wakeboarding, down the Alpine Slide, and seeing the sights in downtown Salt Lake City. I am not sure what he thinks of our way of life, our food, or our crazy family, but it has been a good experience for us, and I'm glad he came to spend a month with us.
