I had an assignment for a class to attend something political, so today I went to the Tea Party for the Republican party at Bluff Street Park. It was rumored that Sarah Palin was going to be there, but she wasn't :(. I've never been to anything like this in my life! It was definitely an experience I will always remember. And oh man are there some crazy people out there!
So, since I worked 74 hrs last week and that I've 0 hrs this week I thought it would be a good idea to get some use of my time off hrs that I'm having to use. Sydney and I decided to go to Zion and get one of those "America the Beautiful" passes, Marilyn gave us one for Christmas and we decided to get it now. I'm a little bummed that the picture on the card is of some birds and not Nankoweap, but what do you do?
But it was really cool because normally you don't get to see the water running down the dry creek bed. The top three pictures are from a hike that isn't a park hike. You just go off the roadside on the other side of the tunnels. The bottom picture is a panoramic picture that I made of the view from the Canyon Overlook Trail. You start just east of the big tunnel.
It's a new tradition at our house to have the boys over for a sleep-over when they come to St. George to stay. It's always lots of fun:)
