Come to Zion come to Zion

We were supposed to meet my sister and her family in Moab a couple of weeks ago for their spring break but it end up being 50 and windy. Camping with a four month old in a tent when it goes down into the 30s at night isn't fun (I've done it before and it wasn't the best experience, health-wise, both physical and mental.) So we moved the location to St. George. We spent the first day exploring Zions and it was just as beautiful as ever. As you can see.

I don't care how many times you have seen this view, it is always, always amazing.


This view is pretty good too.

We hiked up to Emerald Pools and then continued to the upper falls. There was a lot of water and the girls had a great time hiking. It makes me so happy that they love to go and that we don't hear a word of complaint from Addie on a three mile hike. She just skips up the trail. The only problem is keeping her off the higher rocks and within eyesight.



Combine the great weather, great hike, and great company with a picnic lunch at the Zion's Lodge and tag on the big grassy area in front of it and you have a pretty good day.
