Trip to Zion
















Well, for once something is actually going on here. Jeremy and I just got back from vacation this past week. We went camping down at Zion national Park. It was amazing down there. It is absolutely beautiful, the weather was all warm and sunny, and the hiking and camping were completely awsome! We started out the trip by riding up the canyon on the shuttle bus and seeing the basic sights. On our first full day there we hiked up to a ridge called Angels Landing. It was absolutely beautiful. Part of the hike includes 22 switchbacks called Walters Wiggles. Its not the best picture but each of those brick walls is the base of one of the switchbacks. Once you get up toward the top you are on a fairly narrow ridge holding on to a safety chain. You can pretty much see the whole park and it is absolutely beautiful. That was the only hike we did that day as it took a long time and was awfully hot coming back down the mountain. The next day we were able to hike to the mouth of the narrows and then we hiked to the weeping rock. There are also the emerald pools which is a three loop hike. We only hiked to the first pool because it was getting late but it was absolutely beautiful. I don't know why but all the pictures I put up decided to go to the top of the blog. I was going to add more pictures but I don't want them all bunching up up there so I will try to figure out how to add them in another post.
Other then vacation not much has changed here. Jeremy and I are both still working hard. I am getting ready to go on a trip to drop a client off at a new placement. It should be a good time as I get to go with my friend Marie. Then we will do some PR at nursing homes along the way. Jeremy will be here holding the fort down with the dogs. I'm sure they will take good care of him.
Well, now that I've shared all the excitement in our lives I guess I will go pack for my trip!
