Zion National Park

WOW !!! This place is beautiful !!

We pulled into the campground, not knowing what our site would look like and found we had been assigned a perfect spot. We are located at the base of the Watchman Peak and have other peaks surrouding us on all sides. The first day we just sat outside and stared. As the evening approached, we made a campfire. Then the sunset came and the colors on the peaks just changed each moment. A glorious place to be.

Saturday we plan to take the shuttle into the Zion Valley. Probably we will take some short hikes. We would like to hike the 2 miles along the Riverside Hike back to what is called the Narrows. Will let you know how far we get.

Also, I have my new camera now. It is a Sony cybershot DSC-H9. It is the closest digital camera to an SLR without being one. So I will testing it out while we hike. So that means an hour and a half hike will probably take us four hours.
Love to all of you,
Linda and Barb
