UTAH - WOW

Canyons, Canyons and more Canyons. During the past week we have seen some of the most spectacular scenery imaginable.

Unfortunately due to restrictions on file sizes at this campsite we cannot upload any pictures just yet but we will try to get them on the blog ASAP.

Since arriving at the St George RV Resort in southern Utah on the May 14, we have toured Zion Canyon National Park, the North Rim of the Grand Canyon National Park, Red Canyon National Recreation Area and Bryce Canyon National Park.

Zion is about 45 minutes from the resort and is by far Gary's favorite.
The North Rim is about 3 hours away while Bryce and Red Canyon are 2 1/2 hours away.

Judy found Red canyon Awesome and Bryce inspiring.

The 6 hours we spent at each of the National Parks was definitely not enough time and we are already planning a return trip.

On our way back from Bryce we did some exploring and followed a road less travelled - and found out why. Utah highway 14 joins US 89 with US 15 by going up about 9975 ft and over a Volcano. The road twist and turns through lush forests and steep Canyons and gives great views of the lake in the volcano's cauldron.

Tomorrow, Friday May 22 we leave St George and head north to Salt Lake City to visit an old friend and Navigator training course mate of Gary's, Mel Felts and his wife Ina. It has been almost 20 years since Mel and Gary saw each other last.

Well got to go now TTFN Gary & Judy
