A Day of Adventure

Today started out with an adventure. Jack got to go have a CT scan... Mama got up, after much harassing by Dad, and then Dad took Jack to UVRMC and Mama went back to bed. Jack was thrilled that Dad got to be with him when he had his CT scan, which was 2 scans, one of around his head about his ears, and the other of just his L ear. Jack was a bit nervous, and a bit worried. However, he loved the gizmo (what is it about Phippen men and gadgets?) He loved watching the CT machine spin around him. 

After Dad and Jack got home, they woke Mama back up by throwing Max at her. Dad got Xandri and Asa out of bed, and we all started to get ready to go. Daddy took everyone, to start with. He left Xandri and Max at Jackie & April's. Then, he, Jack and Asa and met Aunt Kim (Rasmussen) at IKEA. Then he met Aunt Jen at McDonalds in Lehi. Then, we joined up and drove Max and Xandri's gear and met Grandma Max at her office at Coldwell Banker. Then we were on our way. It was 11:48, just short of noon.

We got to Moab at 3:45pm and met with our friend Sherry and walked around her new property in Moab (we even saw "schmooder," which is a "supercalifragilistic word for "nasty stuff.) We talked about her new house, visited her old house, and saw the cutest newborn Dachshund puppies (they were only 2 days old!!) We left Moab after getting take-out from the Moab Diner.

We have finally arrived at the Red Rooster Inn up a lovely canyon just past Glenwood Springs. Tomorrow begins the Spa Retreat. I'll take some pictures and post those, too.
