Brad and the blue buffalo

Brad rides the Blue Buffalo trail

This morning Brad went with a local guide on a "challenging and inspiring" mountain bike ride up some rocky terrain, over some slickrock, and along a mesa rim. From there they had a view of the valley and could even see some features in Arches National Park, in the distance. They stopped to admire some petroglyphs, one of which was a blue buffalo.
Back in town, I toured the local shops; later we took in the local Museum of Moab, which has some great exhibits on the history of the area, which was first settled by a few cattle ranchers, and then uranium was discovered, and things really started booming. They have a travelling exhibition at the moment, from the Smithsonian, called New Harmonies, on American Roots music.
Across the street, there was some public art beside city hall, from the Puma Project the sign said.

Now it's time to pack up and get ready to head out in the morning; we've enjoyed our time here and would like to come back - there's lots to see and do!
