Day 4 Zion

loritracy day 4
First, click on the above photo to see the rest of day 4.
The beginning of these pictures are a few taken from the car as we moved north and east from Henderson Nevada to Zion National Park. The interstate had cut through solid rock mountains. Think I-40 from above Asheville to Gatlinburg exit, only solid rock and twice as high and more steep and curvy. The rest of the pictures are Zion National Park. The pictures do not tell Zion's story. It is an extremely beautiful, peaceful place. The road out heading east is probably the most scary road I have ever driven without crossing a bridge. There are a few pictures of that. I was gripping the wheel with both hands focused 15 feet in front of the car. Lori was leaning out the window shouting whaa look at that drop off.
I am now sitting in the corner of a "rustic" motel lobby the only place I could get a connection to the internet. I have some AWESOME pictures from Bryce Canyon we took this morning. We went in a 6:30 to keep cool, miss the crowd. I will probably wait until Sunday night to post those when we get to Flagstaff. It took 45 minutes to download 57 pictures for day four.
Lori is at the General Store think the Olsen on Little House on the Pairie. She said she will be back to her normal constant texting when we get back to civilization.
Enjoy the pictures, everything is going great look for the next post late Sunday
Tracy and Lori.
