Memorial Day @ Zions

The park is going to be full!!! There will be no parking!!!  All valid reasons not to take  a Sunday drive to Zion's National Park.  We decided to give it a shot and hope for the best.  

There was definitely no parking to be had in town or by the signs in the park.  There were people everywhere.  Maybe if we have lunch and then try again we might have better luck.  We still couldn't find any parking but at least our bellies were full and we decided to drive through the tunnel and head home.

Welcome!!!

Coming out of the tunnel we spotted an opening right by the Overlook Trail and the perfect spot.  Ryder, Reganne, Dave, and I headed off.

Look how far we are up.

Who knows what you will encounter on a trail in Zion's.

The picture doesn't lie.
This is a beautiful spot.

Trying to find some shade?
Or hiding?

It was a great afternoon spent outside enjoying the sunshine and dust.  This is going to be our year to explore closer to home.  Maybe see what all those people traveled so far to see an enjoy.
